The
story is set during the Second World War and deals
with a group of children living in the North East
of England in a town called Garmouth regularly suffering
from bomb attacks by the German forces. One of the
children raids a German aircraft that crashed in the
area and takes a fully operational machine gun, intending
to set up their own fortress. They fire the gun at
a German plane, missing it but forcing it to crash-land;
the gang befriend the pilot, not knowing that they
had caused him to crash. The plot reflects
the terrors, paranoias and anxieties which were part
of 1940s Britain.
