"Direct Methods" by Thomson Burtis is an action-packed adventure from the early days of military aviation, probably from the 1920s. The story throws you into a high-stakes mission involving the Army Air Service, where bravery and clever plans are the only way to win. A daring government agent joins forces with a general and two skilled pilots to nab a sneaky criminal mastermind who is behind a string of big mail heists. Their plan is risky: they fake a plane crash deep in the Appalachian Mountains, disguising themselves as downed officers, all to get close to the criminal's mountain hideout. As the mission unfolds, the group faces danger at every turn, battling both the rugged terrain and the criminal boss's dangerous crew in the dangerous woods. "Direct Methods" is a deadly game of wits, where one wrong move could cost them everything.
