The Valentich Disappearance
By Geoff Lichy

About this ebook
A plane crash. A death cult worshiping the Elder Gods. A nameless eldritch abomination rising from the black ocean depths.
Frederick Valentich doesn't know what horrors he's about to face. A routine exercise will soon become a hideous nightmare - as he stumbles upon an abandoned city with dark secrets.
This Lovecraftian short story is based on real life events. In 1978, a young Australian pilot disappeared while on a training flight. To this day, no one knows how or why he vanished. This modern retelling shows us what might have happened in the universe of HP Lovecraft.
