Summary: "Creatures of the Abyss" by Murray Leinster is a science fiction novel written in the early 1960s. The story follows Terry Holt, an electronics expert who, while managing the affairs of a company in Manila, finds himself entangled in the mysterious world of fishing boats and unusual sea creatures, particularly a fishing boat named "La Rubia", which has been catching an inexplicable number of fish. When a girl named Deirdre approaches him to create a device for her father's boat, their collaboration leads them into a mystery involving strange sounds and supernatural elements believed to exist in the ocean's depths. The opening of the book introduces Terry Holt, who is in the process of winding up his operations in Manila due to trouble caused by "La Rubia"’s sudden success in fishing, which has led to turmoil among local fishermen. He has a chance encounter with Deirdre, who seeks his expertise to create a special fish-driving device to help her father’s boat. Their conversation reveals tensions related to illegal fishing practices and superstitions among fishermen about underwater entities. As their relationship evolves into a partnership, the narrative sets the stage for their venture into the unknown oceanic depths, filled with enigmatic fish behaviors and potent technological devices.
