    Novels of Paul G. Dedicated to the fond memories of my dad, Dr. George Gasper This is purely a work of fiction and has no resemblance or nothing to do with anyone living or dead and the author profusely apologizes and regrets if the feelings of anybody is hurt or offended. MALDIVES TALES When I am sitting on my easy chair and thinking about writing Maldives Tales, my dream to become a writer is fulfilled. Everything happens for a reason and there is no coincidence. Life always put me in very tricky and delicate situations so that I could feel the hands of Providence always in my life, supporting and sustaining me, as well as those of the evil one trying to hamper my dream to be a writer to come true. I tried myriad ways to get exposure and experience, to bring out the best in me. I went chasing a dream to be a writer and that dream came pursuing me and I learned that the best is yet to come, all is always for better and now is the best and most opportune time for everything, even in this corolla times. Since I had an accident breaking my right leg, I had to postpone a Middle East trip, the next day and that saved me from getting stranded in some airport and undergoing quarantine there. There is such an episode in my life that I always wanted to forget, but never could, and it always came popping up on the monitor of my mind, like a disco, snorkelling in the shallow seas, scuba diving, beach parties or even a hard drink of Tequila with a pinch of pepper on the expense account, the life at Pathala resort in Maldives, a sought after destination of the billionaires and connoisseurs of the world, who did not know what else to do with their money, which they had plenty.
