description: History is just one damned thing after another.Behind the seemingly innocuous faade of St Mary's a different kind of historical research is taking place. They don't do 'time-travel' - they 'investigate major historical events in contemporary time'. Maintaining the appearance of harmless eccentrics is not always within their power - especially given their propensity for causing loud explosions when things get too quiet.Meet the disaster-magnets of St Mary's Institute of Historical Research as they ricochet around History. Their aim is to observe and document - to try and find the answers to many of History's unanswered questions...and not to die in the process. But one wrong move and History will fight back - to the death. And as they soon discover - it's not just History they're fighting.Follow the catastrophe curve from 11th-century London to World War I and from the Cretaceous Period to the destruction of the Great Library at Alexandria. For wherever Historians go chaos is sure to follow in their wake....
