Publisher's Summary
BOOK 14 IN THE CHRONICLES OF ST MARY'S SERIES, FROM THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER JODI TAYLOR.
St Mary's is under investigation. Their director has been shot and Max is Number One Suspect. Can things get any worse? We all know the answer to that one.
Max needs to get away - fast - and a Brilliant Idea soon leads her to a full-scale uprising in twentieth-century China. If she can come by a historical treasure or two in the process, even better. That is, if she makes it out alive.
Then there's the small matter of Insight - the sinister organisation from the future hell bent on changing History for their own dark ends. Having successfully infiltrated their ranks, Max is perfectly placed to stop them. But she knows her cover will soon be blown - because it's already happened.
Can Max take down Insight before they come after her? The circle is closing, and only one can survive...
For fans of Terry Pratchett, Jasper Fforde, Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club series and Doctor Who.

So much fun and more to come!
Another thoroughly enjoyable St. Mary’s adventure. I truly love this series and Zara Rahm’s narration. I gobbled the last 2 up and will have to wait for more.

Not the end!
This is my all-time favourite series! Max and Markham are two of the best written characters in modern literature. The entire St. Mary’s family of characters are absolutely delightful and I never tire of reading their adventures. Jodi Taylor is an incredible storyteller and she imbues her characters with quick wit and intelligence while creating the most entertaining adventures for them to embark upon. Her books are perfectly narrated by Zara Ramm. I hope this series never ends.

The circle is closed.
Masterpiece. The whole series, except that one book… you know the one. But even that one is the pain meant for growing great things. Jodi Taylor will forever be a favourite of mine and I plan to pass these jewels on to many other readers.

Pure, wonderful, escapism!
Another set of wild adventures for Max. This is my all-time favourite series and I have read a lot of books in my life!!
Whenever life gets a little too much, I just reach for St Mary’s and lose myself in their world. I wish so much we really could time travel!
A huge thank you to Jodi Taylor for creating and writing the series (and the Time Police series!) and Zara Ramm for being the perfect Max.
