Just One Damned Thing After Another: The Chronicles of St.

Just One Damned Thing After Another: The Chronicles of St. Mary's Book One

The first book in the USA Today bestselling British madcap time-travelling series, served with a dash of wit that seems to be everyoneâ€™s cup of tea.

â€œHistory is just one damned thing after another.â€ â€”Arnold Toynbee

Behind the seemingly innocuous facade of St. Maryâ€™s Institute of Historical Research, a different kind of academic work is taking place. Just donâ€™t call it â€œtime travelâ€â€”these historians â€œinvestigate major historical events in contemporary time.â€ And they arenâ€™t your harmless eccentrics either; a more accurate description, as they ricochet around history, might be unintentional disaster-magnets.

The first thing you learn on the job at St. Maryâ€™s is that one wrong move and history will fight backâ€”sometimes in particularly nasty ways. But, as new recruit Madeleine Maxwell soon discovers, itâ€™s not only history theyâ€™re often fighting.

The Chronicles of St. Maryâ€™s tells the chaotic adventures of Max and her compatriotsâ€”Director Bairstow, Chief Leon Farrell, Mr. Markham, and many moreâ€”as they travel through time, saving St. Maryâ€™s (too often by the very seat of their pants) and thwarting time-travelling terrorists, all the while leaving plenty of time for tea.

From eleventh-century London to World War I, from the Cretaceous Period to the destruction of the Great Library at Alexandria, one thing is for sure: wherever the historians at St. Maryâ€™s go, chaos is sure to follow in their wake.
