Imagine an urban social worker psychiatrist battling not only to save the children in his care but also to conquer his own demons. The smallest detail (a tiny spider, for example) can suddenly loom into an epic opponent in this multi-layered, irresistible psychological thriller. The story jumps seamlessly from San Francisco's most depressed neighborhoods to a mythic landscape, cast of characters, and battlefield implied by the present but out of reach for ordinary perceptions. Until now. You will never see life in the same way after joining the author Among the Veils.

Bret Alexander Sweet was born in San Francisco, California. He is the son of prominent Bay Area civil rights attorney and social entrepreneur, Clif- ford Charles Sweet. Bret combined his passion for music and entrepreneurship at a young age by earning an internship at PolyGram Group Distribution’s San Francisco office in the summer of 1995. Three months later he was an artist develop- ment rep focusing on the company’s urban division associated with Island Def Jam artists. He left PolyGram shortly after the merger to focus more on his college career at San Francisco State University and open his own label, House Kemetic Suns. In 2002, Bret began teaching entrepreneurship to youth and young adults from under-developed communities. In 2008, Bret began certifying new co- horts of future NFTE instructors as a NFTE (National Foundation for the Teaching of Entrepreneurship) CETI (Certified Entrepreneurship Teacher Instructor). Bret graduated from the University of San Francisco in May 2009 with his Master’s of Business Administration with a dual emphasis in Marketing and Entrepreneurship. Currently, he teaches entrepreneurship at Cogswell Polytechnical College, the first professor of Entrepreneurship at the school. Bret certifies NFTE teachers, writes for publication and is an outspoken advocate for Alzheim- er’s research toward a cure.
