The thrilling sequel to Camp X, winner of the Silver Birch Award—
Jack and George have barely recovered from their ordeal in Camp X when they are relocated to Bowmanville, Ontario, where their mother has been offered a clerking job in a prisoner of war camp holding the highest ranking German officers.
Soon the boys are offered the after-school job of delivering the camp’s mail, and Canadian agents ask them to keep their eyes and ears open for possible escape plans. For, as the boys are told, it is a matter of loyalty to their homeland that the German prisoners must try to escape, even if it costs them their lives—and the lives of two boys in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Young readers will not only thrill to this exciting story, but also learn more about Canada’s own prisoner of war (POW) camp at Bowmanville and the escape attempt, a little know event in the history of Canada and WWII.

Espionage & suspense will capture your tweens in this riveting series about the Canada’s part in the intelligence war in WWII.
Having successfully foiled a Nazi plot to kidnap one of the British Royal Family, brothers Jack and George are on the move again—this time to England. The boys and their parents are travelling aboard a merchant ship that’s part of a convoy carrying supplies and troops to the battlefields of Europe at the request of the royal family, who wishes to thank them for rescuing Princess Louise.
Crossing the Atlantic is challenging enough … but when the destroyers attached to their convoy torpedo a U-boat, events take another very surprising turn. The U-boat was transporting a secret: a secret that Jack and George’s mother is now entrusted with … and a secret that the Nazis will kill to protect. When the family comes ashore in England, they’re whisked off to Bletchley Park, the hub of the British spy network, so that they can help to decipher it.
It’s been months since brothers Jack and George’s adventure in Camp 30, where they’d been sent to spy on the high-ranking German prisoners of war. Now they’re hoping that life will return to normal. But they’re proved terribly wrong when their mother is kidnapped by three thugs who seem to know all about the boys’ pasts.
Before they know it, they’re on a terrifying new adventure back to Camp X to unearth a buried stash of gold, without which they’ll never see their mother again.
Jack and George have assumed new identities and are back at work as special operatives, keeping an eye out for suspicious activity at an ammunition plant. They don’t have to wait long before they uncover a plot by German spies to blow up the plant and everyone in it! It’s up to the quick-thinking boys to find a way to stop them and stay alive while doing it…
Readers will not only enjoy the adventure but learn of the intelligence war in WWII and the ammunition factories on the home front.
George and his family have been relocated to Bermuda in the hope that the Nazi agents who’ve been trying to kill them lose the scent and think them dead. But trouble is never far behind George and Jack, and they soon find themselves in the face of danger yet again.
