"Sleep?" echoed William in dissgust. "i jolly well wouldn't waste an air raid sleepin' in it."

William has mixed feelings about the war. On the one hand, sweets and cream cakes have become horribly hard to find. On the other, doing one's bit for the war effort can lead to jolly exciting opportunities for someone brave and brilliat (someone just like William, in fact).

Whether he's catching enemy parachutists, deciphering sinister coded messages or digging up unexploded bombs, William is determined to save his country at all costs. But who will save the country from William?
