Hope for the Best: Jodi Taylor

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. If you love Jasper Fforde or Ben Aaronovitch, you won`t be able to resist Jodi Taylor.

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.
