It's May 21 1941, thought Johnny. It's war. Johnny Maxwell and his friends have to do something when they find Mrs Tachyon, the local bag lady, semi-conscious in an alley . . . as long as it's not the kiss of life. But there's more to Mrs Tachyon than a squeaky trolley and a bunch of dubious black bags. Somehow she holds the key to different times, different eras – including the Blackbury Blitz in 1941. Suddenly now isn't the safe place Johnny once thought it was as he finds himself caught up more and more with then . . . The third book in the Johnny Maxwell trilogy.

Johnny Maxwell finds old Mrs. Tachyon, a bag lady, in the cinema, and he learns that her grocery cart is, in fact, a time machine. Johnny and his friends go back in time to 1941 when his town was accidentally struck with German bombs and many people were killed. One of Johnny's friends is left behind in 1941, and they make plans to return for him.
Stories about time travel are always fun, I think, and this one is not only a story about time travel but it's also written by the masterfully funny Terry Pratchett.
