Publisher's summary
Cast adrift in his own chronology, the Doctor must avert the consequences of a catastrophic experiment in using time as a weapon of war.
Plot
The Doctor finds himself running away from security droids with a woman and no memory of where he is or why Peri is absent. He attempts to stop the launch of a bomb, but the controls self-destruct and he and the woman have to climb into the bomb chamber to stop it manually. The woman falls from the ladder and the Doctor finds himself in a compound with Peri thanks to a time jump, investigating an isolated patient, Trobe, ageing at an incredible rate before reverting to a baby thanks to an accelerated chronology coupled with a time loop. The Doctor suspects that time experiments might have caused the condition, as well as the time jumps he has experienced, but Professor Maylon denies that any have taken place.
Another time jump sends the Doctor back to a time shortly after arriving at the compound in the TARDIS in search of the source of time distortions. The woman killed by the security droids, Professor Standing, intends to have the Doctor and Peri shot as spies, but the Doctor uses his future knowledge to tell Maylon that Trobe is suffering from a chronological infection and, after another time jump, the Doctor finds himself running to the TARDIS with him and Peri. He learns that the bomb he was working to stop is a chronon bomb on a satellite which the trio are trying to reach, but Maylon is shot by Standing before they can get to the TARDIS. A time jump sends the Doctor back in time to Trobe's room where Trobe attacks him during his questioning.
