"Into the Mountains" recounts the horrifying and heroic experience of the March 20 hostages. It provides the first book-length look into the tragic but ultimately triumphant saga of Father Rhoel Gallardo and his companions at the hands of the dreaded Abu Sayyaf. It also situates the bandit group's brazen terrorism with stories from a former Abu Sayyaf urban assassin, a long time Basilian immigrant, a legendary Christian vigilante, and an interfaith dialogue pioneer. The Epilogue brings the story up to date, with stunning revelations that pose uncomfortable questions about the fate of the Dos Palmas hostages and the entire Abu Sayyaf kidnapping enterprise.
