About the Book

Professor Victor P. Kingsley of Sri Lanka is a renowned scholar in Parapsychology and Vampirology. He submits to a Sri Lankan State University, the first ever Thesis on the Revenant Motif, a unique masterpiece hitherto produced by a Scholar which is accepted by the said University as suitable for submission for the award of a Ph.D. However, after the elapse of three years, very strangely, the University withdraws its approval for no apparent valid reason, precipitating Prof. Kingsley to petition the Supreme Court in Sri Lanka on the grounds of violating his basic Human Rights. Subsequent to the petition being taken up, the Supreme Court grants monetary awards to Prof. Kingsley for violation of his Human Rights, to proceed to an accepted foreign University and continue studies leading to the grant of a Ph.D. and also the full refund of the course fee levied by the Sri Lankan University. On his request, substantiated by the Certified Copies of the Decision of the Supreme Court of Sri Lanka, the Uppsala University in Sweden admits him to its Postgraduate Faculty as a Postdoctoral Scholar and wants him to apply for his visa through the Consulate of Sweden in Sri Lanka. It may be a quirk of fate, he experiences a sudden death at the age of 65 years due a heart and lung failure on the day prior to his interview with the Consulate. Well versed on the Revenant Motif through extensive research, he knows that with firm determination he can resume his former life with the same identity if certain prerequisites are met and thus has given instructions to his wife not to eviscerate (embalm) his body and inhume it in a special vault in their family burial grounds. Therefore, on the third day of his burial, he rises from his grave without the knowledge of anybody and collecting all the documents and apparels needed by him, checks into a hotel close to the Swedish Consulate and after facing the required interviews for the visa, flies to Stockholm, Sweden and enrols at the Uppsala University. Upon obtaining his Ph.D. Degree in Vampirology from the Uppsala University, he is offered a Professorship to lecture to the students who follow the Bachelors and Masters Degrees of the University. 26 year old Victorine (Vicky) Petrovsky from Ukraine is a Masters' Degree Research Student who comes under his tutelage and very soon they fall in love and begin living together under one shelter and subsequently get married. During their first semester vacation, they visit Sri Lanka and on the second semester vacation, they visit Ukraine to meet Vicky's mother Tatiana who is 48 years old. The very moment Tatiana sees Prof. Kingsley, she tells her daughter Vicky that he is her father lost during the Soviet war and adds that he is none other than Victor Petrovsky whom she married 28 years ago in Ukraine. When questioned by Vicky, her husband Victor sir says he cannot remember anything about getting married to Tatiana in Ukraine 28 years ago. Very soon, when Vicky is away with her friends at the Kiev University, her alma-mater, Tatiana influenced by the subliminal feeling that Victor P. Kingsley is her lost husband, entices Victor to indulge in full sexual intercourse with her to their ultimate mutual satisfaction. Furthermore, Vicky too entertains in her covert latent mind that Victor is her "sugar daddy" with the disparity in their ages, but nevertheless as her husband she derives unfathomable sexual and erotic pleasure by engaging in sexual intercourse with him. While Tatiana explains to her daughter Vicky that Victor is her married husband and she needs to conduct sexual relations with him, Vicky does not object on condition that Victor agrees to Tatiana's proposition. When Victor agrees to have sexual relations with both Vicky and Tatiana simultaneously, the threesome starts living together on a single bed not entertaining any enmity, envy or jealousy, and begin to lead very happy and contented lives whilst staying in Ukraine.
