Master Thief was the first of two special Big Finish Productions Short Trips in conjunction with the Time Lord Victorious series. It was written by Sophie Iles and featured Roger Delgado's incarnation of the Master.

Publisher's summary[[edit] | [edit source]]

The Master wants to plunder one of the most secure vaults in the universe, the Repository. He's got a plan, and a deadly new weapon to assist him. However, as the Master quickly discovers, getting in might be easy, but getting away with it might cost him everything.

  • The vaults contain round canisters with faded writing, one of which is labelled "The Traitors" - an in-joke reference to the missing fourth episode of The Daleks' Master Plan.
