This Devil-Slayer, Danny Sylva, is set during the American occupation of Iraq. Danny returns for his third tour of duty after having difficulties adjusting to civilian life (girlfriend dumps him, can't find work). When a fellow soldier named Wahl disappears, Danny's squad gets a lead on him, but they walk into an ambush and all but Danny are killed. Danny finds Wahl, strung up by his ankles with his throat cut while devils feed upon human bodies.
