Inner Demons was a full cast audio anthology released by Big Finish Productions in February 2025. It was the first release of the Call Me Master audio series. It starred the Spy Master, played by Sacha Dhawan.

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

Master of disguise, disarray and disorder. The Master has always enjoyed creating chaos, but this incarnation revels in it more than most.

A new Master is unleashed upon the universe, and he is taking his time - and pleasure – in finding out exactly who he is...

Self-Help by Robert Valentine

The Master is having a crisis of the existential variety.

While he may have a classic diabolical scheme on the go, the dastardly Time Lord's latest incarnation isn't quite feeling himself. In fact, he's not even sure who he is anymore. He needs help. But can he help himself?

The Clockwork Swan by Georgia Cook

Opening night is approaching for the latest presentation at cultural theme park Historica Dramatica: Earth-set whodunnit The Clockwork Swan. But cast and crew are being murdered...

Enter a mysterious stranger. Who better to solve the crime than galaxy-renowned detective LeMaitre? Only, LeMaitre isn’t all he seems...

The Good Life by Una McCormack

On a distant Island, a group of holy men and women work together to keep the Balance. Elta, one of the Shore-folk, has come to learn. But there's a new man on the Island – the first in living memory – and it's not clear whether he's saint or sinner.

Is it only coincidence that the weather seems more changeable these days? That people are angrier and turning to violence? Where, wonders Elta, is this all heading – and does the stranger even know himself?
