About the Book

As the First World War draws to a close the forces that will bring about the next cataclysm are already at work. The rising tide of Bolshevism is in collision with nationalists and fascists. The Versailles Treaty failed as it was written and became the blueprint for another, more terrible war. America wants to retreat back across the ocean and yet there are those who know that the next time America needs to be prepared to defend itself. The Warszaw Express is the story of how an American pilot, Harry Braham is recruited to be a new kind of counterespionage agent, at a time when America was still trying to isolate itself. Just another young man caught up in events far larger than himself, he accepts the new challenge while finding the woman of his dreams. As he moves through France and Germany Harry faces danger with a Russian spy who must either seduce him or kill him. From Paris to Warsaw, the struggle for independence is played out on the Steppe and in the skies over Poland. With Harry Braham at the controls, the Warszaw Express hurtles into the middle of one of the twentieth century's epic struggles.
About the Author: Author John Bushby was introduced to the film noire genre while in grade school. From watching grainy black and white films on an antique Philco television he began to satiate his taste for the genre by reading everything he could find. Dashiell Hamett, Eric Ambler, Le Carre, Len Deighton, Sax Rohmer, Alan Furst, Philip Kerr and David Downing all have shown him the way of the craft. Bushby has drawn on the experience of over thirty years of global business experience, traveling in and out of Europe and Asia to set the background for his books. His characters come from the people he has met along the way. Heroes and villains are drawn from casual and close acquaintances, often a mixture of both. His prime interest in writing is to ask the question of what would someone do in a situation where life or death might hang in the balance? The period that fascinates him the most are the years leading up to the Second World War. Looking back from where we are now it is easy to see all the steps that led up to that catastrophe. But living then, with the lens of one's life to observe the world how would a person act? Just as we today cannot foretell the future or even the next minute, the men and women in the 1930s and 1940s had only their own experience and view of the world to guide them. In The Warszaw Express Bushby draws on his experience as a pilot and Naval Flight Officer to describe the lure of flying and the feeling of being in combat. His creation of Harry Braham comes from a distillation of family members caught up in the two world wars. Bushby lives in Flanders, New Jersey. He is now working on the next in the Harry Braham series of novels. You can learn more at his website; www.johnbushby.com
