Booklog 56/2020: Jodi Taylor: What Could Possibly Go Wrong? - St Mary's #6

[jacey]

I read this on kindle in 2016 and am now blazing through the audiobooks and thoroughly enjoying them. In my review of the kindle book I said:  After the incidents in No Time Like The Past, Max is on light duties for six months while she fully recovers from various injuries, so she swaps departments with Petersen and takes on the mantle of head of training. It should be easy because there are no trainees… until there are and Max has to not only devise a new training programme but keep her unruly charges under control, preferably without killing or injuring them. If that's supposed to be light duties I'd hate to see what she'd end up doing on normal duties. She has five students, some of them almost as bolshy as she was herself, but it turns out to be the quiet ones you have to watch. From the Valley of the Kings, the burning of Joan of Arc, the opening of the Clifton Suspension Bridge and the Battle of Bosworth Field, Max has to protect the timeline and if that means making a harsh decision. She knows she'll have to do it. If she doesn't History will.

It's good to catch up with this one again as a re-read/listen. As ever Zara Ramm's reading is excellent. Max and Leon are in a good place, at last. Some of the plot lines overlap from previous books as Max and Markham realise that there must be a traitor in St Mary's who gave away the details of their disastrous trip (in Book #5) to old St Paul's during the fire of London. Markham (one of my favourite regulars) has suspicions, and  Max spends part of the book searching for a traitor and suspecting the wrong person. Her trainees come to life beautifully and will appear in future books. I especially loved Miss Lingoss' quirkiness.
