Dan Starkey recounts a brand new adventure in Victorian Wales for
the Eighth Doctor, as played on TV by Paul McGann. In 1890s
Cardiff, reporter James MacFarlane is intrigued by rumours of
'anaesthesia frolics', at which gatherings the latest frontier in
pain relief is demonstrated to influential guests. After he speaks
to someone who attended several such 'frolics' - and left with a
hand and two fingers missing - James realises that the events have
a dark side. Contriving an invitation, he is astounded to find
another guest also investigating - it's his old friend the Doctor!
Reunited in mystery, the Doctor and James enter the murky
underbelly of polite Cardiff society, where they uncover a
shattering secret - and a monster lurking at its heart. Dan
Starkey, who played Strax in the BBC TV series, reads Andrew Lane's
dark and brooding tale. Reading produced by Neil Gardner Project
