Journey Into Fear
Journey Into Fear | Eric Ambler
3 posts | 3 read | 5 to read
A thrilling, intense, and masterfully plotted classic suspense tale from one of the founders of the genre. Returning to his hotel room after a late-night flirtation with a cabaret dancer at an Istanbul bote, Graham is surprised by an intruder with a gun. What follows is a nightmare of intrigue for the English armaments engineer as he makes his way home aboard an Italian freighter. Among the passengers are a couple of Nazi assassins intent on preventing his returning to England with plans for a Turkish defense system, the seductive cabaret dancer and her manager husband, and a number of surprising allies.

I gave myself a head start for January and still only just about got to five books. That'll do though! Journey to Fear was my #bookspin and I really enjoyed it. It's been one of those books knocking round the house for ages and I'm glad I got to it.

‘A nightmarish tale of espionage and treachery in Istanbul, as an American munitions expert, played by Joseph Cotten, goes on the run from the Gestapo during World War II.‘
I haven‘t read this, but have just enjoyed an episode of the BBC Radio 4 adaption. Brilliant!

batsy What is this gorgeous set? So many great titles there! 7y
LeahBergen @DeborahSmall @EvieBee I guess I should read that one soon. 😆 7y
LeahBergen @wonga I always thought there should be more, too, but I hunted them down online after I bought them and it seems that they are just a 10 volume set. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 7y
LeahBergen @emilyhaldi @batsy I found them at a book sale a few years ago for $5 (for the set). I think they are just a 1960s, cheapo book club set (from researching online) but I thought they seemed a good deal for a bunch of great titles I hadn‘t read yet! 😄 7y
rubyslippersreads I used to have this edition of Daughter of Time. 😊 7y
