Even though he seems to be quite the prolific writer, I had never heard of Warren Court, nor read any of his stories, before downloading this one as part of a promotional bundle. Into the Abyss is listed as being a stand-alone novella, book 5 in the Aubrey Endeavours spy thriller series, but from the way it ends it could very well have been the prequel to the series.
Into the Abyss, at 112 pages is a quick read, but an exciting read. Tying Aubrey’s flight across troubled waters in a Lockheed Model 10 Electra to Anelia Earhart’s ill-fated flight on the same day in an Electra was a nice touch. Aubrey was supposed to shadow Amelia and use her flight as a cover for her spy flight if confronted by the Japanese. Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans of mice and men.
If you are into historical spy fiction, you will enjoy this one.
