Shuttling between coastal countryside and a deep-space cruiser trapped in hyperspace, the duo attempt to track down an alien criminal and unravel the mystery of the stones of blood. Luckily, they have the help of the faithful K-9...
Geoffrey Beevers reads Terrance Dicks's 1980 novelisation of the BBC TV serial by David Fisher, with John Leeson providing the authentic Voice of K-9.
