About this listen

TIME POLICE AUDIOBOOK 5: The new Time Police adventure from the million-copy bestselling author of THE CHRONICLES OF ST MARY'S.

From the million-copy bestselling author of THE CHRONICLES OF ST MARY'S.

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?

AUDIOBOOK 5 IN THE TIME POLICE SERIES

FOR FANS OF TERRY PRATCHETT, THE THURSDAY MURDER CLUB AND DOCTOR WHO

I love it all
My only complaint is the ending. In that, it ends. I don’t want it to end.

Love love love

What a bloody brilliant book! As always I find myself finding the spin off series before finding the originals so I will be going back now to listen to the saint Mary’s series now.

I love the trio! And all the other characters. Would love to see what happens with the new trainees… please don’t take too long with the next books!!

As for the reader Zara Ram makes the story come alive and has the right level of sarcasm to suit! Amazing skills and put Zara up there with the likes of Marian Hussey and Stephen Fry! Will be looking for more books read by Zara.

I fire trucking love this whole series!

“Killing Time” by Jodi Taylor ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The fifth in the Time Police series and just as brilliant as the others – filled with chaos, humour, and everything you’d expect from Jodi Taylor.

Honestly, I didn’t think I’d love anything more than The Chronicles of St Mary’s series, but The Time Police has somehow surpassed it (though let’s be real, I’ll forever pre-order and devour both).

In short, it’s Bloody Bollocking Excellent!

I have no idea where Jodi Taylor finds these obscure historical events but this book - like the others - had me hooked from start to finish. A ghost train lost in Time? Two members of Team Weird trapped onboard, bickering their way through disaster? Pure gold. Meanwhile, Lt Grint’s crew races against the clock, Matthew’s pushing the limits of sanity, and Mikey’s latest experiment does what Mikey’s experiments always do – wreak havoc.

The Time Police universe continues to expand in the best ways, and I can’t wait for the next instalments of TP, St Mary’s, and the recovery agents.

If you haven’t started this series yet – what are you doing?

Zara Ramm continues to be excellent.
The story though I felt was a bit of a departure from the usual Time Police fare - Taylor is blurring the lines between St Mary’s and the Time Police.
Definite Blaine the Mono vibes from a murderous time travelling ghost train, and R&D mk. 2 with Mikey’s experiments. An emotional rollercoaster in this one!

Crossing the St Mary’s line

Loved every moment of this book. This author always has me in stitches and the Narrator is very talented and has the ability to sound like several different people which makes for great story telling. Can't wait for the next one to come out.

Can't get enough

I love all the Jodi Taylor books. This one is no exception. Jogs along at a great pace, well written, exciting and very funny in parts. Another absolute magic book.

Great story. Always a cracker of a take

Realising that my time with Audible coincided with the wonderful Jodi Taylor's decade of published work felt special. I have enjoyed every one of her 25 novels and 26 short stories over that time (ok, except Santa Grint) . The combination of the ideal Narrator with a witty and exceptional Author means I only stop listening to sleep! Great Story. Great Prose. Great Listening.

Still Timeless after ten years...

Amazing story as usual with Jodie Taylor!
