Description
Tommy McGee at War is set against the backdrop of World War II in Fremantle, where teenagers and adults alike navigate the challenges of wartime. At the heart of the story are the Holy Smokes gang, led by Tommy McGee, who find themselves locked in a constant struggle with their arch-rivals, the Stinking Head Shea Gang. The narrative is populated with a cast of characters, including Sergeant Major John Daly, known to Tommy as Uncle Jack, and Poacher Kenworthy, whose fearsome reputation strikes fear into the hearts of those around him. As tensions rise, the Holy Smokes discover that their nemesis has found a way into the heavily defended Port of Fremantle. As the story unfolds, the characters face numerous challenges, including skirmishes with the Stinking Heads and a dramatic turn of events when Ingrid is inducted into the Holy Smokes. Meanwhile, Uncle Jack's Z Force faces its own set of difficulties, as his navigator falls prey to civilian police in Fremantle Gaol.
