This run of stories featuring Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor
features four stories, loosely connected as the Doctor finds
himself the target of an enemy. This set contains: The Sinestran
Kill by Andrew Smith. When the Doctor decides to trace an anomalous
energy signature on twentieth century Earth, he stumbles into an
assassination attempt. Gangland thugs are trying to murder a
seemingly innocent shopkeeper, and it’s only the intervention of
the Doctor and Ann Kelso – a WPC who happens to be on the scene
– that prevents a tragedy. But why do the gangsters want the
shopkeeper dead? And what does this have to do with alien
technology? The first stages of a grand conspiracy are about to be
revealed. And finding the answers will take Ann Kelso on a journey
like no other. Planet of the Drashigs by Phil Mulryne. When the
TARDIS lands on an alien planet, the Doctor’s intentions to show
Ann Kelso an advanced future society are thrown into disarray.
Because they have arrived on DrashigWorld - a park where every
known species of the terrifying predators has been gathered
together to entertain and thrill the public. The familiar wetland
Drashigs, the albino burrowing Drashigs of the desert, and
deadliest of all, the tiny Emerald Drashigs of the rain forests.
And it’s not the best day to have arrived. The park has been shut
down due to a visitor fatality. A Galactic Attractions inspector is
on site meaning everyone is extremely tense and under pressure.
It’s exactly the right circumstances in which someone might make
a mistake. And on Drashigworld, mistakes are deadly. The
Enchantress of Numbers by Simon Barnard and Paul Morris. The TARDIS
lands in the grounds of Newstead Abbey, Nottinghamshire, in 1850.
Mistaken for a medic and his maid, the Doctor and Ann are brought
to meet Ada Lovelace - the mother of computing and daughter of Lord
Byron - who has recently fallen ill. But the travellers are not
here by chance. Something odd is happening on Earth, and they’ve
determined that this place is the centre of it. Strange figures are
walking the land. Strange figures wearing bird-like masks. What do
they want with Ada? And how will it change the future of humanity?
The False Guardian by Guy Adams. Ann Kelso doesn’t like
mysteries. Keen to investigate the trail of the Sinestrans, she
sets the TARDIS on a new course... but flies into danger. Arriving
on a desolate world that the Doctor finds somehow familiar, the
TARDIS crew discover that something is wrong with time. The
inhabitants of an unusual complex are experimenting at the command
of their enigmatic director... somebody who has quite a strong
grudge against the Doctor.Facing an old foe who was presumed dead,
the travellers are soon trapped in a diabolical scheme. But is it
just the tip of the iceberg? Planet of the Drashigs features the
