Jeremiah Bourne is in great danger.

As Jeremiah is swept from his crumbling home in Blackfriars in 2019, to the same house but in 1910, he suddenly faces two questions: how did he get here, and how can he return to his own time?

On his quest for answers, he encounters a cast of comic characters and situations: a coven of free-thinking spiritualists, a futuristic residents association, warring street gangs, eugenic scientists, aggressive domestic servants and a nudist magistrate. As events unfold, Jeremiah begins to wonder whether there could be a link between his time-travelling and his mothers mysterious disappearance many years ago. Now he must work out who he can trust to help him look for her.

Nigel Planer's electrifying novel takes a new and exciting look at the possibility of time travel as it catapults you into a thrilling journey across London and through time.

'Witty and smart ... He's managed to invent characters who invade your heart. Dazzling and very funny. I loved it' Miriam Margolyes 'Witty, charming and extremely clever. It makes you laugh, it makes you think and, of course, you can't put it down. Already looking forward to the next one' Tim McInnerny 'Nigel is a brilliant writer, he is ingenious and very funny. Jeremiah Bourne in Time is such a great concept, from the get-go, it is mind-opening and leads us down a really fascinating path . . . through time. Very cool' Anthony Head 'Imaginative romp through time and memories via a biscuit tin, a nudist and a chatty parrot! Delightful time-travel shenanigans! Get lost in time and find your new favourite temporal traveller' Rhianna Pratchett 'Not just freewheeling, Pratchett-esque, time-travelling fun, but also a fascinating ramble through the psychogeography of Edwardian London' Bob Fischer, Fortean Times 'Funny, perceptive and hugely readable. Nigels new novel is as good and as original as I expected it to be, which is very' Ben Elton 'Nigel's delightful style, wit and often profound observations carry this fascinating story along at a pace. An actual page turner, even if the pages are virtual' Robert Llewellyn
