The Bike Escape: Northampton, 1939. A young tearaway unwillingly evacuated to the countryside is unjustly accused of theft. He decides to make his way back home, never mind the Blitz – but he'll need to steal a bike to do it...
The Apple Spy: Scotland, 1940. A pair of children realise that the odd strangers they see in their tiny village are German spies. Can they alert the authorities or will the ruthless spies find them first?
The Barrel Burglary: Sunderland, 1941. The Home Guard of a small town need supplies but the local factory owner won't help. So they decide to use unconventional methods instead...
The Phantom Farm: Portsmouth, 1941. With food scarce and rationing taking hold, plenty of people turned to the black market to get more than their share. A girl finds herself mixed up in mysterious dealings – what is the secret of the haunted farm?

Terry Deary’s Terrible True Tales: Second World War explores the Second World War through the eyes of children and real adults who could have lived at the time.
