Don’t miss this epic, hilarious story of time travel, trouble, and twins who never quit, from the world’s favourite storyteller, James Patterson. Twins Pew and Basket Church are this close to unravelling the final Church family mystery - if only the clues would stop slinging them through history like time-traveling yo-yos.

Just like that, they’re in 16th-century London, where Shakespeare can’t write a single line, a potato-hoarding privateer needs help, two queens are on the brink of total royal chaos, and the evil Pirate Macaulay is back with his most unhinged, timeline-toppling plot yet.. Armed only with fast thinking, wild disguises, and heroic levels of questionable judgment, it’s up to Pew and Basket to crack the riddles, outmanoeuvre Macaulay, and finally find the answers they’ve chased across centuries.

Explosive action, nonstop laughs, and big heart collide in the most outrageous, high-stakes time travel adventure of all time.
