“This book entails the story of two lovers who were children of two army officers; Lati Hamzah and Paul Martins. Lati's daughter, Mitah and Paul Martin's son, Dino, became lovers against Lati's wish. Lati's opposition was based on a reason surrounding Dino's father which he refused to be factual about and he was very unyielding despite his daughter's obvious love for Dino. However these two love birds kept holding on to their love and refusing to be apart. In the long run, Mitah got pregnant with Dino's child but Lati forced his daughter Mitah to deny Dino the paternity of his son, with a dangerous threat thereby disrupting their intriguing romance. In order to protect her lover, Mitah had to do everything her father asked leaving Dino heartbroken. Mitah's child Dino remained in Lati's care and custody. Mitah however, had a rigid admirer Nopaz, who would stop at nothing to get her. Since, Mitah would not yield to him, Nopaz eventually abducted her keeping her to himself for days and while Lati was being extremely angry about the kidnap of his daughter, he made a terrible mistake, missed his Target and fired a careless shot at his daughter instead having her killed. Lati was utterly shocked and terrified and could not believe what he had done. This incident hunted and affected him for most of his lifetime, affected all of their lives. Lati struggled to get over the emotional pain he caused himself even in years to come as he later retired from his work.

The 'battle line' was drawn between Lati and Dino many years after. Dino who was already an emotionally detached man that pain had built stronger was determined to use everything in his power to get his son from Lati who also was not ready to release the boy. Even after retirement, Lati remained powerful and deadly to confront. But eventually Dino succeeded in having his son in his custody after many failed attempts. However one Fateful day, Dino who wasn't ready to release his son irrespective of any circumstances later sucuumed as Lati narrated a terrible tale involving his father(Paul Martins) that happened many years ago to him.”
