Johnny Goes North: A Johnny Fedora Espionage Spy Thriller Assignment Book 7 by Desmond Cory
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Gunner Holmgren, a two-timing spymaster is the epitome of an evil genius. His sinister plans of murders disguised as science, have been reviled by many, but none have been able to thwart him yet. When he finally did perish, he took to his grave the location of a reported treasure trove of gold. Eventually, British Intelligence Officer Johnny Fedora is tasked with investigation the rumors and finding the gold.
An oldtimey style Espionage thriller, this book is a classical tale of good guy vs bad guy albeit one who is dead, but still manages thwart Johnny along the way. Still, Johnny relies upon his grit and his wit to guide him in solving the clues. An enjoyable book that will grip you early and allow you to lose yourself in the hunt for clues and the eventual solving of the mystery. I found the book to be entertaining and interesting. I liked Johnny, while he might be a bit rough and know-it-all for my tastes, I think he is a great main character who carries the book well.
