The pace of this book is slightly more relaxed than the previous ones as Max's pregnancy advances and she adjusts to the limitations this starts to impose. However, this does not stop her from causing her usual mayhem and managing to get into trouble. 

There are still a number of interesting times and places visited, plus the introduction of a few new characters as St. Mary's goes through a bit of an upheaval, all bound together with the usual humour and emotional beats, plus an ending that will blow your socks off. 

Read and enjoy.
