Summary

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

another joyful romp with our favourite characters

always enjoy our heros journey through time, the story was ok and plenty of peril. just lacked that something, perhaps we don't see enough of the wider Time Police family and they are just names.

excellent storyline

The story is good, the characters develop well. Whilst saying that until I got used to the story jumping back retelling from different points of view i did find it confusing. Once i got used to it that became less confusing. As usual wonderful narrative by Zara Ramm.

The time police find their feet

A wonderful story with more steps and side steps than a rugby winger - and just as exciting. This series has now really established its own personality

Continued Time Police shenanigans. Narrator is excellent, love this series and can't wait for more

Really enjoyed it, the story has become a little less impressive, but this is made up for by great characters and a great ongoing story.
