Set against the backdrop of World War II, this narrative chronicles the extraordinary life of Mohammad Adil, a young Moro warrior who became a key figure in the Philippine Muslim resistance. Commissioned as a junior officer in Douglas MacArthur's guerrilla army, Adil utilized his Sufi teachings and exceptional combat skills to lead daring attacks against Japanese forces. His exploits in the highland rainforests, marked by a remarkable resilience and an aura of invincibility, highlight the lesser-known but significant contributions of Moro fighters in the Pacific Theater.
