Amballore Thoma - Paperback

by Jose Thekkumthala (Author)

An extraordinary story of ordinary people.

The book presents images of Life's many shades and hues, all the way from cradle to grave and beyond. You will find unforgettable moments of humility and arrogance, gratitude and greed, and loyalty and betrayal. These pages might echo your own story carved out of the innocence of childhood, illusions and fantasies of youth's dream factory, slippery slopes of the middle age, and surrender to the providence toward the old age.

As Thoma and Ann are wrung through a roller-coaster ride of riches-to-rages-to-riches, they reach the evening of their lives when Death Man arrives to haul them to Outer space. Thoma's long arm reaches out from beyond the grave to serve justice to Gang of Four, his ungrateful younger children.

Chettiar, the landlord, a distortion in the four-dimensional space continuum, plant his seed in Thoma's household, taking control of his life in a wider scheme of perpetuation of werewolf dynasty. Ann deploys the weapon of prayer to steer the family out of the chaos, but to no avail.

Josh steps in to solve the supernatural mystery plaguing the family. He puts an end to the September Full Moon Massacre. He gets visions of the attic, leading him to solve the curse on the Thoma family.

The novel embraces multiple genres to present a gripping story of horror and suspense. It seamlessly delves into surreal elements, draping it in magical realism, seemingly acknowledging the necessity of the supernatural to explain the reality of life.
