Book synopsis

A mysterious time-travelling device discovered in an old, abandoned campervan - could this be the key to changing the history of the biggest musical phenomenon of all time?

In the year 2000, Beatles fan Desmond Jones is driving home in torrential rain, desperately hoping to make it back in time to join his friends for their regular Sunday night pub quiz in Middlesham. Whilst held up by flooding, an enigmatic stranger persuades Desmond to follow him down a dark, narrow lane as a shortcut. Here he comes across a time-travelling device, a time radio, which he discovers is able to miraculously transport him to momentous events in the story of The Beatles. The exact point of where and when in time he is transported to is directly related to the music the radio is playing. As the action moves from Hamburg to New York, to Abbey Road and beyond, Desmond is closely monitored by Time Agent Bill and Time Peacekeeper Molly who he first meets as a student in 1980. Molly's job, along with Bill and other time agents, is to try to ensure that time travellers such as Desmond do not do anything to change history as each change creates a new timeline and the more timelines there are, the more fragile they become and fractures are created.

The usually reserved Desmond is having the time of his life and is frequently amazed and often rendered speechless as he continues his time-travelling adventures, until his world is turned upside down following a catastrophic event at EMI studios in Abbey Road in 1967.

Whether you are fanatical about The Beatles or a mere casual admirer, or even if you're not a Beatles fan and you just like a great adventure with a touch of mystery, this heart-warming story will appeal to you, whatever your age.
