Storm of the Sea Devils was the first story of the thirteenth series of The Fourth Doctor Adventures, produced by Big Finish Productions. It was written by David K Barnes and featured Tom Baker as the Fourth Doctor, Christopher Naylor as Harry Sullivan and Eleanor Crooks as Naomi Cross.
Publisher's summary
Surgeon Lieutenant Harry Sullivan is supposed to be on holiday. But his arrival in Calcutta is intercepted by someone from the local branch of UNIT - a staff member called Naomi Cross.
A businessman in the area has mysteriously cancelled the opening of his new hotel...and local villagers have reported sightings of 'devils' in the swamps. Devils that look very familiar from the UNIT files...
The businessman requires medical aid so UNIT have decided to send him a doctor. Unfortunately, when Harry and Naomi arrive on site they find a different Doctor has got there ahead of them...And that's just the start of their troubles.
Plot
Part one
Harry lands in Calcutta for a holiday and is met at the airport by Naomi, who gives security a letter from UNIT when he is unable to produce his passport and takes him to headquarters. There, Captain Sharma tells him about Ramesh Kamal, a wealthy man residing with his wife, Amita, in an unopened hotel in the swamps near which a Sea Devil has been spotted by a villager. As UNIT's medics are busy on the Nepalese border, Harry agrees to go to the hotel with Naomi in answer to an intercepted request from Kamal for a doctor so that they might investigate. They travel there by boat, almost being attacked by Kamal's crocodiles on the way, and are taken by Haldar and his armed guards to meet with the Kamals, who accuse them of lying about their identities as a doctor has already arrived: the Doctor.
The Doctor gives away Harry's deception and is overheard by Haldar telling him and Naomi that he had not answered the call, but simply went along with it. Despite this, Kamal gets Harry to give a second opinion on the condition of injured anthropologist Professor Billimoria, whose injuries seem to have been inflicted by a powerful clawed creature with its hands and who is suffering from blood poisoning. The Doctor is locked up whilst Harry and Naomi are put to work tending to Billimoria, but he escapes using his sonic screwdriver and finds Naomi looking around the hotel in search of the creature which Billimoria says is still in the building. They enter a locked swimming pool when they hear Haldar looking around and are attacked by a Sea Devil inside.
Part two
The Doctor and Naomi realise that the Sea Devil, Shorak, is chained up and start to release her, but Kamal finds them and confiscates the sonic screwdriver. Kamal has Haldar escort Naomi back to assist Harry and takes the Doctor for a walk around the grounds, explaining that he has been searching for Sea Devils and sedated Shorak after finding her standing over the body of his doctor. He then hired Billimoria to communicate with her, but she refused to speak until she met the Doctor and Naomi and was shown compassion. Once Harry completes his operation, he finds Amita, whom she tried to talk to about their shared loneliness, and is afterwards warned by Kamal not to speak with her unattended again.
