The Al-Anbari Desert, Western Iraq: Where haboob winds shift the landscape in mere minutes, confusing direction, burying Humvees in fine-grit sand... Where U.S. soldiers take shelter in the ruins of a sandstone city hiding more than just its history... Where an embedded journalist puts her life in the hands of men whose motives are not their own... And where an Army chaplain's faith is tested by an ancient evil. Jonathan Gensler's Into the Casbah and All The Way Through combines military horror and folk horror for a two-part nightmare excursion into the remnants of a forgotten desert city full of shadowy doorways and ancient whispers. First, we follow magazine writer Sarah Chambers as she gets the bloody inside story of a lifetime, then, U.S. Army chaplain Major Harris, whose role in this doomed recovery mission was assigned long, long ago. Chambers and Harris thought they knew their assignments. Too bad their assignments knew them better.
