Book 13 in the internationally best-selling Chronicles of St Mary's series.

For fans of Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club series, Jasper Fforde and Doctor Who.

Finally—finally!—Max has that nice office job she's always wanted. The one with no heavy lifting and no one tries to kill her. Well, one out of two's not bad....

Punching well above their weight, Max and Markham set out to bring down a sinister organisation founded in the future—with a suspicious focus on the past.

Max's focus is staying alive long enough to reunite with Leon and Matthew, alternately helped and hindered by St Mary's—who aren't always the blessing they like to think they are.

But non-stop leaping around the timeline—from witnessing Magna Carta to disturbing a certain young man with a penchant for gunpowder—is beginning to take its toll. Is Max going mad? Or are the ghosts of the past finally catching up with her?

Critic reviews

"Jodi Taylor is quite simply the Queen of Time. Her books are a swashbuckling joyride through history." (C. K. McDonnell)

This is the first time that I have pre-ordered a book from Audible as I couldn't wait for it given the cliff hanger at the end of the last one. I wasn't dissapointed, except for when it ended! The St Mary's Chronicles get better as the characters develop and different elements and characters from books in the past come back again. It's a stong plot which moves along at pace but with a familar rhythm that readers of Jodi Taylor's other books will be familar with. The historical refences were interesting and the sub-plots intriguing. I can't say any more about Pros and Cons or the sinister organisation Max and Markham come up against without spoiling the plot- so read it for yourself.
Beautifully narrated by Zara Ramm as always!

I can’t get enough of St Mary’s and The Time Police and this was no different. I was cackling my head off in places, and I didn’t want the book to end. Jodi Taylor at her best as always.

Brilliant as always!
