Milton and Iona didn’t think it would be possible to do more time travelling, but they could hardly have been more wrong… In the Phoenix Trilogy, their fast-paced adventures continue to exciting places and events during the Second World War.

During a school trip, Milton is awakened in his tent by a thunderstorm. In the light of a flash of lightning, he thinks he sees a man standing by a tree waving at him. A secret society with members in black suits and sunglasses is close by. Who are they? What are they after? And why do they open a portal that looks like a phoenix bird, making it possible to travel back in time?

Milton and his classmate Iona are once again drawn into a dangerous adventure and end up in Berlin during WWII. In the Sachsenhausen concentration camp, the world’s largest counterfeit operation is taking place: Operation Bernhard, the biggest forgery operation in history. But it turns out that besides money, many human lives are also at stake.
