A Chronicles of St Mary's short story that is sure to entertain. If you love Jasper Fforde or Ben Aaronovitch, you won't be able to resist Jodi Taylor.

**Includes bonus St Mary's escapades Desiccated Water and Markham and the Anal Probing - never before heard in audio - and original introductions read by the author herself**

'Max, your father is here. He's come to take Matthew away'

Have you ever wondered what would happen if Max's husband met Max's father? What would Leon do?

They're normally a fairly amiable bunch, but this is the story of what to expect if St Mary's doesn't like someone. As in, really doesn't like someone. Warning: contains a unit-wide criminal enterprise, a great deal of illegal activity and a sad misuse of public resources. All the things a father will do to protect his family.

It is also a story of revenge. Because this is payback - St Mary's style.

**Bonus stories**

Desiccated Water - Professor Rapson breaks astonishing new ground with his latest feat of scientific invention.

Markham and the Anal Probing - When Markham disappears in the middle of nowhere, Max jumps to the only logical conclusion - alien abduction.

This is one of my favorite stories, it really gives me a sense of what everyone should have in their lives. Friends that will at the drop of a hat stop everything to help a friend in trouble. Narration as always is great.

Jodi Taylor is always entertaining. The first story is fairly long. The other two are fun snippets.

Fun short stories

Jodi Taylor’s writing/humor combined with Zara’s narration are top notch. My second time around listening to all the books. My only issues (personal problem?) was I kept getting confused during the main story, forgetting the female voice was actually Leon. I never notice in any of the other books, but this male-centric tale lost me at points, and I had to remember “she” was Leon

Great short story/ies

Very minor spoilers: Loved the story, but it was a bit confusing knowing who was talking, as a lot of this was written from Leon’s perspective and you don’t realize that fir a while. Also, unless you’ve read every one of the books in this series, you do t know WHY her father deserves what he gets

Fantastic story

Fun snippets with Jodi Taylor asides. Maxwell’s humor never ends and the whole team bands together. Too short!

Great shorts

John Maxwell comes to St. Mary's to take Matthew. But St.Mary's comes together to protect their own and get revenge on the man who tortured Max growing up! This was awesome I love when Leon and Markham make their plans! Terrific!!

Perfect Revenge!

If you know your St.Mary's, the first of these stories must impress the bell out of you! So psychologically astute, so well painted, so respectful and still so deliciously irreverent and laughable I look forward to listening to it again and again to pick up on all the strands of unconventional and creative brilliance, not to mention the examples well worth following!

The other two stories lack the depth and foreshadowing (can't wait to find out more about Leon's dad!), but in their brevity still displaying oodles of laughs and that warm feeling engendered my recognizing beloved characters and getting additional details to add to their histories and interaction.

I love this series so much, and am so grateful for every chance to spend time inside Jodi's brain!

Possibly the best short story collection out there

Another brilliant story from Jodi & great performance by Zara. Love the whole series! Can't wait for more!

Go Leon!

This is a short story, followed by a couple anecdotes. To call the shorter entries full on stories might be a stretch. The title story clocks in at over 1.5 hours while the others don't break the quarter hour mark.

That all being said, this audio book is worth getting. The title story, while not including a time jump, has St. Mary's in fine form and doing what they do best... cause problems. This time the problems are all aimed at Max's (rightfully) hated father. The man is formidable and politically powerful, wealthy, a perceived pillar of his community. He stands no chance against the combined distain of the St. Mary's crew as they close ranks to protect one of their own. It's a distinct pleasure to "watch" them quietly take him down.

Highly recommended for fans of the St. Mary's series. Others may get a bit lost in the back story, but will likely get enough of it to appreciate the pay off.

Another fun vignette from the crew at St Mary's

I love these books. I could listen to one every week. Even short ones like this one are worth one of my credits.

Always awesome.
