Summary: This is the story of a plane crash in the wilds of northern Canada - and the four men who survived to tell the tale. On a wintry October night in 1984, nine passengers boarded a Piper Navajo commuter plane bound for remote communities in the far north of Canada. Only four people - strangers from wildly different backgrounds - will survive the night that follows: the pilot, a prominent politician, an accused criminal and the rookie policeman escorting him. "Into the Abyss" is a dramatic tale of tragedy, a coming of age story and a compassionate account of how four men resurrected shattered lives.
