About this listen

A Chronicles of St Mary's short story that is sure to entertain. If you love Jasper Fforde or Ben Aaronovitch, you won't be able to resist Jodi Taylor.

It's Christmas Eve at St Mary's

And all through the house

Nothing is stirring...

Except for Max, Peterson and Markham, sneaking out at midnight for an assignment that is very definitely off the books.

It's ten years ago tonight that Senior Historians Bashford and Grey went missing in 12th century Jerusalem. So how did they end up in AD60 Roman Colchester?

Max has a theory. Peterson has a plan. Markham has bacon sandwiches. Colchester has Boudicca and her bloodthirsty Iceni hordes.

And then there's the giant pig ... the enraged, giant pig...

Another highly amusing story narrated perfectly by Zara Ramm. Great listening while I'm sewing, gardening, well anything really. I'll be lost when I run out of St Mary tales.

Can't stop listening, love them all
