The First Farrell Family Christmas.
Max, Leon and Matthew - together at last for Christmas at St Mary's - a time of conspicuous consumption, riotous misbehaviour and the traditional illegal Christmas jump. And this time, it's inter-generational.
Donning her unfamiliar mother hat, Max takes Matthew back to 19th century London, where they plan to deliver a parcel of Christmas cheer to his former friends, but find themselves confronting the terrifying Old Ma Scrope in the process.
'Tis the season to be jolly.
It's also the season of goodwill towards all mankind.
Pity no one told Max.
Readers love Jodi Taylor:
'Once in a while, I discover an author who changes everything... Jodi Taylor and her protagonista Madeleine "Max" Maxwell have seduced me'
'A great mix of British proper-ness and humour with a large dollop of historical fun'
'Addictive. I wish St Mary's was real and I was a part of it'
'Jodi Taylor has an imagination that gets me completely hooked'
'A tour de force'©2017 Jodi Taylor

Takes readers on a carnival ride through laughter and tears with a bit of time travel thrown in for spice
A true page-turner

Would you consider the audio edition of Christmas Past to be better than the print version?
I have always loved Zara Ramm as Max in the St Mary's series and this story is no exception. She brings to life the wonderful story by Jodi Taylor and adds just that little bit extra to the well written story.Max, Leon and Matthew are finally going to get to spend their first Christmas together. They have suffered greatly at the hands of Ronan who kidnapped Matthew and in effect ripped the family apart. But Christmas at St Mary's is known for illicit time travel events and Max sees a chance to undo some of the damage with a trip back to the past.
This is now my favourite of the short stories and is certainly in keeping with the festive season.
A Christmas Story reminiscent of A Christmas Carol
