Publisher's Summary

It's the start of a Cardiff autumn - the days are getting shorter, the dark evenings settling in. There's a part of Cardiff that no one goes to much. No crime, no murders, just they stay away. A collection of old rundown houses and gloomy streets. Something's not quite right there, something is off-kilter. Except now, the Council are renovating the area. And a new company have been employed to do this. And look: they're going to organise street parties to show off the gentrified area. Clown and face-painters for the kids, street magicians for the adults. None of this is Torchwood's problem. Except that Tosh recognises the man sponsoring the street parties when she's passing one day: Bilis Manger!

Notes

  • Alan Turing made a Rift Predictor for Torchwood Three called The Bronze Goddess.

Continuity

  • Takes place between TW: Meat and TW: Reset - Rhys knows about Torchwood, yet Owen is still alive.
  • Toshiko Sato was responsible for The Toaster Incident, (TW:Exit Wounds) plus Tosh and UNIT "...are not mates". (TW:Fragments)
  • An explanation is given that during the events of DW: Boom Town, Captain Jack confined the team to the Hub to stop them meeting his past self and contaminating his timeline.
  • Rhys Williams and Gwen Cooper are making the final plans for their wedding. (TW: Something Borrowed)
  • Idris Hopper, Margaret Blaine's secretary in DW: Boom Town is a major character in this novel.
  • The phrase Turn Left (DW: Turn Left) is used frequently to describe the events leading to an alternate future.
  • Charlie Gaskell's team is stated to have first discovered and used Torchwood's alien cryo-tech in 1906. (This would seem to contradict TW: Fragments in which Jack is frozen in 1901. Furthermore, Tosh states in TW: To the Last Man that Torchwood had been using the technology since "Victorian times" Perhaps Torchwood had rudimentary cryonic technology in the Victorian Era, but later upgraded to a more advanced system in 1906.)
