Publisher's Summary

The tenth book in the bestselling Chronicles of St Mary's series which follows a group of tea-soaked disaster magnets as they hurtle their way around History.

You can't change History. History doesn't like it. There are always consequences.

Max is no stranger to taking matters into her own hands. Especially when she's had A Brilliant Idea. Yes, it will mean breaking a few rules, but - as Max always says - they're not her rules.

Seconded to the Time Police to join in the hunt for the renegade Clive Ronan, Max is a long way from St Mary's. But life in the future does have its plus points - although not for long.

A problem with the Time Map reveals chaos in the 16th century and the wrong Tudor queen on the throne. History has gone rogue, there's a St Mary's team right in the firing line and Max must step up.

You know what they say. Hope for the best. But plan for the worst.

Love this series!

Zara Ramm is the perfect narrator for the St Mary’s Chronicles! This is my go-to series during these crappy times. It always entertains and makes me laugh.

Great book slightly stereotypical villain

Love this whole series and the detail with which Jodi Taylor approaches them. This book is no exception but for the slightly stereotypical black and arabic villains which I somehow found disappointing in an otherwise creative and unique universe. That bit felt like a bad TV cop show. The series doesn't usually talk about race but this one made me feel like perhaps it needs some variety in its discussion of it.I loved the Kingdom of kush however.
