On the third day of Ramadan, the village wakes to find the
severed heads of nine of its sons stacked in banana crates
by the bus stop. One of them belonged to one of the most
wanted men in Iraq, known to his friends as Ibrahim the
Fated. How did this good and humble man earn the enmity of
so many? What did he do to deserve such a death? The answer lies in his lifelong friendship with Abdullah
Kafka and Tariq the Befuddled, who each have their own
remarkable stories to tell. It lies on the scarred,
irradiated battlefields of the Gulf War and in the ashes of
a revolution strangled in its cradle. It lies in the
steadfast love of his wife and the festering scorn of his
daughter. And, above all, it lies behind the locked gates of the
President's gardens, buried alongside the countless victims
of a pitiless reign of terror.
