He&’s been shuttling between the twenty-first century and the 1940s in search of a hideous Victorian vase called &“the bishop&’s bird stump&” as part of a project to restore the famed Coventry Cathedral, destroyed in a Nazi air raid.But then Verity Kindle, a fellow time traveler, inadvertently brings back something from the past.
