The Vega station - a haven for gamblers, art lovers and duty free shoppers, the one place where the Battrulians and their erstwhile enemies, the Canvine, meet ad mix, in neutral space. A pressure point, an explosive mixture, and just as the new President of Battrul is about to arrive, the TARDIS crew turn up.

Fitz is having trouble, he's accidentally got himself hired as an assassin while trying to emulate James Bond, and he's upset Bigdog Caruso, the onofficial Canveine leader on Vega.

Sam is in trouble. She's become involved with the key witness to a murder, and the witnesss has vanished.

The Doctor meanwhile, has been roped in to help with investigations into robbery, sabbotage and the murder, as well as to sort out Fitz's problems, and the president's safety. He's in his element.

And if they should get bored, there's a hitman on the loose, monsters roaming the station corridors, an exhibition of art by a painter who depicted his own death, and the opera.

RELEASE NOTES:

To be taken to the BC meet tomorrow.

I've had this book in my possession for a while, but have only just got round to journalling it - not bad as Dr Who novels go, but probably is really only for the 'die hard' fans...
