It's Christmas at St Mary's and time for Max's obligatory illegal jump. On this occasion, however, they're right up against it. A loaded gun has been left behind in Ancient Egypt and it's up to them to retrieve it before anyone accidentally blows their own head off, thus affecting the timeline for centuries to come. And as if that's not enough, someone (Max) has inadvertently poisoned Mr Markham. It's hot, they're running out of supplies, they can't find the gun, and it's all going horribly wrong. Again.
Get ready for this year’s traditional St Mary’s Christmas Day jump…

We hope you have enjoyed this St Mary’s Christmas story - please leave a comment to show you have read it and are participating in the challenge.
There are tiny quiet moments in JT's action packed books that are precious. Rounds it all out so nicely.
Love the sweet ending and also “Things to do - buy Markham a beer”
