Vaenmont is now a place where the past and the present meet in action to tell a bizarre thriller tale involving the kidnapping of his girl. By then David is at the mercy of a radical organization which wants him to use his secret - his teleportation ability and unearth the secret of this town or he loses Anne.

•"Vaenmont Fort was a surreal fort, whose bowels drove hunger pangs to persuade the occupants into gnawing at the bones of despair, until the unthinkable became thinkable…and happened. How could I ever begin to forgive such a place?"
•"The biggest mistake I made, was to fall in love with Anne. Before I met Anne, I had been happy to postpone having a relationship, preferring to deal with the likes of Melisa. Melisa could limit her emotions to jump into an affair so as to advance her career."
•Word filtered through to the other side of this divided city that all the forbidden things including sex and drugs could be found in abundance in the Forbidden Zone.
•"Imagine being eaten alive by a wild cat, a jaguar, while you watch from a distance?"
•"Have you ever felt something lick you even though you cannot touch it or see it?"
