Death in Geneva was the second story in the audio anthology, Shutdown, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by Andrew Smith and featured Jemma Redgrave as Kate Stewart, Ingrid Oliver as Petronella Osgood, James Joyce as Josh Carter and Warren Brown as Sam Bishop.
Publisher's summary
With few people left to trust, and with assassins on their tail, Kate and Osgood race to UNIT Command in Geneva. Will General Avary be able to help them?
But when death follows UNIT all the way from the English countryside to the snowy slopes of the Alps, Captain Carter finds himself in a race against time.
As the body count rises, Kate struggles to separate friend from foe, danger circles Osgood ever closer, and, high in the mountains, Josh comes face to face with the enemy...
Plot
Leaving Josh behind to look into the explosion at King Henry's University and the attack which ended with Jay Roy's sacrifice, Kate and Osgood fly to Geneva to ask General Grant Avary for assistance in dealing with the leak in the British government. Corporal Anna Burges drives Josh to the Tower of London, but the car is attacked on the way and, after getting out of the wreck, Anna is murdered and Josh gives chase. Whilst he is distracted, Anna's body removed.
In Geneva, General Avary agrees to put together a team to investigate any links between Lyme and the government and asks that Kate and Osgood remain in order to brief them; after their meeting, General Grant makes a secure phone call and says that they have a problem.
Sam stops by Kate's office in the hopes of seeing her before heading to Johannesburg and speaks with Josh, suggesting that Anna was removed from the car so that the killers could get information from her. Although Josh is initially sceptical given that she was only a driver, he realises that she knew where Osgood was going and informs Kate.
