  History is a symphony of echoes heard and unheard. It is a poem with events as

  In the second book in the Chronicles of St Mary's series, Max and the team are
  back dancing on the edge of disaster as they visit Victorian London in search
  of Jack the Ripper, witness the murder of Archbishop Thomas a Becket in
  Canterbury Cathedral, and discover that dodos make a grockling noise when
  eating cucumber sandwiches.
  
  
  
  
  
  But they must also confront an enemy intent on destroying St Mary's – an enemy
  willing, if necessary, to destroy History itself to do it.
