Synopsis

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

'Jodi Taylor is quite simply the Queen of Time' C. K. MCDONNELL

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?

About Jodi Taylor

LOSE TRACK OF TIME IN THE WORLD OF JODI TAYLORJodi Taylor is the internationally bestselling author of over twenty-five novels and more short stories that you can shake a stick at.Her Chronicles of St Mary's series follows a bunch of disaster-prone individuals who investigate major historical events in contemporary time. Do NOT call it time travel! She is also the author of the Time Police books. Set in the same world as St Mary's, this spinoff charts the highs and lows of an all-powerful, international organisation tasked with keeping the Timeline straight no matter what the cost. Efficient and disciplined, obviously they're nothing like St Mary's. Except when they are.In 2024, The Ballad of Smallhope and Pennyroyal accidentally grew from a short story to a full-length novel, revealing the origin story of two beloved characters who feature in both series.Jodi is also known for her gripping supernatural thrillers featuring the mysterious Elizabeth Cage together with the enchanting Frogmorton Farm series - a fairy story for adults.Born in Bristol and now living in Gloucester (facts both cities vigorously deny), she spent many years with her head somewhere else, much to the dismay of family, teachers and employers, before finally deciding to put all that daydreaming to good use and write a book.

Jodi Taylor does it again. Bloody Bollocking Excellent. Where does Jodi pick up on these random historical events is a mystery to me. (YES I was googling and getting nowhere thank you Major Farenden!) Thoroughly enjoyed and looking forward to the next installments of TP, St Mary's and the recovery age......more

Team Weird are back for another time travelling adventure, and this time Jane and Luke are trapped on a runaway train hurtling through time and space. Although not my favourite in the series, I can't deny this was, as always, a fun time. I just found that I was more invested in the side stories invo......more

Goodreads review by Kate on April 15, 2025

The least successful of the series so far (for me at least). I think this is mainly due to the subject of the Zannetti train - a well know myth about a ghost train which disappeared into a tunnel on its maiden trip and never came back out, consigning the train and it's passengers to who knew where. O......more

Goodreads review by Alison on June 11, 2024

Three and a half stars. Someone is selling Moai from Easter Island. Mikey has developed Rapidly Hardening String and testing it on Time Police volunteers. Two young trainspotters have built a time machine in their shed and used it to travel back to Italy where they want to witness the inaugural journ......more

Goodreads review by Julia on January 16, 2025

Finished book 5 of the Time Police series in one go. Combined eBook and audiobook. No St Mary's this time, a pure TP affair; but it has a historical component. This time the TP Disaster Magnets, aka Team 236, have to catch a steam train that's gone rogue.......more
