"Jenny Clutterbuck: Reluctant Traveller in Time" by David Beeley, released in 2025, is a captivating addition to the Stockwell College Series that masterfully blends time travel with emotional depth. This fifth installment follows sixty-year-old Jenny Clutterbuck-sharp-eyed and confident-on her ninth reluctant journey into the past. Set in Thornbury during July 2024, Jenny faces nausea and disorientation as she intervenes in pivotal historical moments, including aiding Chang Chen's democratic movement in Hong Kong and influencing the lives of characters like Will Hayes and Joy Chen. With each mission, however, comes a heavy emotional toll, leaving her to grapple with the cost of her actions and the heartache of missing a chance to reunite with her beloved Steve. Spanning 400 pages, the novel weaves triumph and sorrow into a compelling tale of reluctant heroism, rich in character development and poignant reflections on grief, loss, and the fragility of life. Ideal for fans of time-travel fiction, emotional drama, and stories of personal sacrifice, this book continues Beeley's exploration of human resilience, complementing his earlier Wath Mill Allotments Series.
