Here's what readers have to say about this book....
An excellent page turning adventure that couldn’t be put down. Was so invested in Jos and his father and loved learning about world war 2 from a different perspective whilst rapidly making my way through an unknown British isle.
I recently purchased this book for my 11 year old son and whilst flicking through the first few pages, ahead of giving to him, became instantly hooked and could not put down. This is a fantastic story with action and suspense throughout and you could really see this story being produced for the big screen. I can not wait for the next instalment, which I hope there is, based on the ending. My son ...and wife did also read and all loved just as much as I did. Would strongly recommend.
A well researched exciting and informative story about World War II reaching British shores, for young people, and adults, with more to come....
A fast moving yarn, had me moving across the Jersey landscape with the same nerves and excitement as our unlikely hero. Great story played out on a well researched blanket of history, melding the two into a highly enjoyable read.
