Lies, Damned Lies, and History (The Chronicles of St Mary's, #7)
Jodi Taylor
'I've done some stupid things in my time. I've been reckless. I've broken a few rules. But never before have I ruined so many lives or left such a trail of destruction behind me.'
As Max would be the first to admit, she's never been one for rules. They tend to happen to other people. But this time she's gone too far and everyone is paying the price.
Grounded until the end of time, how can she ever put things right?
And the Rest Is History (The Chronicles of St Mary’s, #8)
Jodi Taylor
No one knows quite how, but Max and her baby are safe at last.
No one knows quite how, but Peterson has persuaded Dr Foster to marry him.
No one knows quite how, but Markham’s marital status remains unknown.
Certainly no one knows quite how a twelve-foot-high teapot could mysteriously materialise on the South Lawn, but it does.
But they do know that Clive Ronan is back.
They do know that he hates them and that this time he has good cause. And they do know that he will bring death and destruction in his wake.
Follow the disaster magnets of St Mary’s from the Egyptian desert to the Battle of Stamford Bridge, from Hastings to the Sack of Constantinople, and from tragedy to triumph and back again, in this, the eighth book in The Chronicles of St Mary’s.

Follow the catastrophe-curve from eleventh-century London to World War I, and from the Cretaceous Period to the destruction of the Great Library at Alexandria. Discover History – The New Sex
Doing Time (The Time Police #1)
Jodi Taylor
A long time ago in the future, the secret of time travel became known to all. Unsurprisingly, the world nearly ended. There will always be idiots who want to change history.
Enter the Time Police. An all-powerful, international organisation tasked with keeping the timeline straight. At all costs.
Their success is legendary. The Time Wars are over. But now they must fight to save a very different future - their own.
This is the story of Jane, Luke and Matthew - the worst recruits in Time Police history. Or, very possibly, three young people who might change everything.
A Symphony of Echoes (The Chronicles of St Mary's, #2)

In the second book in the Chronicles of St Mary's series, Max and the team visit Victorian London in search of Jack the Ripper, witness the murder of Archbishop Thomas a Becket in Canterbury Cathedral, and discover that dodos make a grockling noise when eating cucumber sandwiches.
But they must also confront an enemy intent on destroying St Mary's - an enemy willing, if necessary, to destroy History itself to do it.
Killing Time (The Time Police, #5)
Jodi Taylor
A ghost train, lost in Time, hurtles through the night...
Two members of Team 236 are trapped on board. Not ideal under any circumstances but catastrophic when they're at each other's throats.
Hot on their heels, but never quite able to catch up, can Lt Grint and his team overcome all obstacles in their way and save their fellow officers before the train disappears for good?
Nor is TPHQ without its own problems as Matthew risks his sanity to track them through the Time Map. And a Mikey-experiment goes horribly wrong, exposing something better left concealed for all Time. What are the Time Police hiding?
And what will they do to keep their secret?
Santa Grint (The Time Police, #4.5)
Jodi Taylor
Pre-order a brand new TIME POLICE short story from million-copy bestselling author of THE CHRONICLES OF ST MARY'S.
It all begins when the Time Police hold their first Children's Christmas Party. Their most dangerous mission yet . . .
No good deed ever goes unpunished. Lt Grint succumbs to his softer side and soon lives to regret it. The combination of bubble universes, candy floss, a small boy, a toad named Mr Fluffy, Mount Fanboten, £6.5 million, and a love-struck Officer Lockland are all hard enough to believe, but imagine a situation so dire that only Officer Parrish can save the aforementioned Grint from a lengthy stay in prison. At least, he can - but will he?
And, most unlikely of all, has Commander Hay's long-suffering adjutant finally experienced the first faint stirrings of romance? Is such a thing even possible?
About Time (The Time Police, #4)
Jodi Taylor
Patience is not a virtue known to the Time Police. And Commander Hay is facing the longest day of her life...
After their heroic efforts to safeguard the Acropolis and prevent the Paris Time-Stop, the Time Police have gone from zero to hero. Then one fateful mission to apprehend a minor criminal selling dodgy historical artefacts blows up in all their faces.
An officer is attacked within TPHQ. A prisoner is murdered. And investigations are about to lead to the one place where no officer can legally tread.
Worst of all, trouble is brewing for Luke, Jane and Matthew as a shocking revelation threatens to tear Team Weird apart for good.
Saving Time (The Time Police, #3)
Jodi Taylor
Life is good for Team Weird, now heroes and fully fledged Time Police officers. Luke can't wait to bear arms. Jane has a date. And Matthew still hasn't had his hair cut.
But Time waits for no one and neither do criminal masterminds. A major threat to the Timeline is looming, one far deadlier than mere idiots who want to change history. And when a familiar face becomes a Very Important Lead, will conflicting family loyalties spell trouble for Team Weird?
One missing. One guilt-ridden. And one facing the end of their Time Police career before it's even begun. Not so good then, after all.

Le esotiche scorribande degli storici curiosi
Jodi Taylor
Madeleine Maxwell, Max per gli amici, ha scoperto di recente che la sua laurea in storia non l’avrebbe portata necessariamente a condurre una vita sedentaria, al limite della noia. Da quando è stata reclutata dall’Istituto di ricerche storiche Saint Mary, anzi, le ricerche sul campo la catapultano, insieme ai suoi colleghi, da un’epoca a un’altra senza troppe garanzie di far ritorno nel presente. Inviati in missione nella Londra vittoriana per cercare Jack lo Squartatore, gli storici del St. Mary's se la vedono veramente brutta quando è Jack lo Squartatore a trovare loro. Inseguita nelle strade nebbiose di Whitechapel, Max rischia veramente di fare una brutta fine. Di nuovo. E non è che l’inizio: l’inizio di una corsa contro il tempo per salvare il St. Mary's da un nemico pericolosissimo che ne vuole l'annientamento. Un nemico disposto a distruggere la Storia stessa. Dai giardini pensili di Ninive all’isola Mauritius per evitare l’estinzione dei dodo, all’Inghilterra dei Tudor, dove scoprirà una tragedia inedita di Shakespeare con un finale sconvolgente, il gruppo di storici più sgangherati e divertenti della letteratura continuerà le sue scorribande nella Storia, fra scoperte incredibili.
La confraternita degli storici curiosi (Chronicles of St. Mary's, #1)
Jodi Taylor
Dietro la facciata apparentemente innocua dell’Istituto di ricerche storiche Saint Mary, si nasconde ben altro genere di lavoro accademico. Guai, però, a parlare di «viaggio nel tempo»: gli storici che lo compiono preferiscono dire che «studiano i maggiori accadimenti nell’epoca in cui sono avvenuti». E, quanto a loro, non pensate che siano solo dei tipi un po' eccentrici: a ben vedere, se li si osserva mentre rimbalzano da un’epoca all’altra, li si potrebbe considerare involontarie calamite-attira-disastri. La prima cosa che imparerete sul lavoro che si svolge al Saint Mary è che al minimo passo falso la Storia vi si rivolterà contro, a volte in modo assai sgradevole. Con una vena di irresistibile ironia, la giovane e intraprendente storica Madeleine Maxwell racconta le caotiche avventure del Saint Mary e dei suoi protagonisti: il direttore Bairstow, il capo Leon Farrell, Markham e tanti altri ancora, che viaggiano nel tempo, salvano il Saint Mary (spesso - anzi sempre - per il rotto della cuffia) e affrontano una banda di pericolosi terroristi della Storia, il tutto senza trascurare mai l’ora del tè. Dalla Londra dell’Undicesimo secolo alla Prima guerra mondiale, dal Cretaceo alla distruzione della Biblioteca di Alessandria, una cosa è certa: ovunque vadano quelli del Saint Mary, scoppierà il finimondo.

And that's not all. Are the effects of constantly leaping around the timeline beginning to make themselves felt? Is Max going mad? Or are the ghosts of the past finally catching up with her?
