A Past Submission

Rafael Menton's "A Past Submission"; brings us the tale of a financially secure London bachelor in his forties, enjoying his carefree life to the full, when he finds himself drawn to a strange bookshop to be confronted by a large Latina woman who disturbs him for some reason. A large, feline, and formidable woman he swears he has not seen until now but who also looks alarmingly familiar and triggers within him certain discomfiting and terrifying flashbacks. Flashbacks that include the sensuous and equally feline daughter who seems to alarm him even more than her mother. A feline daughter who is about to reclaim what was once hers and destroy his carefree life forever! A retro story of past lives and occult possession. Rafael Menton is a UK-based Professor of English Literature with a retro passion for the early to mid-twentieth-century fiction of mystery, crime, suspense, and horror & romance with erotic female-led undertones.
Mr Menton's literary tastes range from Doyle and Blackwood and on to Rohmer - as well as sometimes indulging in a more contemporary take of his own on the work of those masters that enables the reader to bring his/her own imagination to the story being read.
