What a great book! Smallhope and Pennyroyal have been characters in several of Jodi Taylor’s Time Police and St Mary’s books, but this novel is a stand alone story of them and their lives. I was full of what Jodi Taylor does best, which is to inject so much real feeling and pathos, and genuine laugh out loud humour into exciting and complex plots to keep the reader laughing, crying and glued to their seats (or bed, or bath, or back of the bus or wherever you are doing your reading/listening). I loved it.
