Publisher's summary

‘The APC-Net stores the preserved brainwaves of dead Time Lords... But not all our thoughts are pure and innocent.’

A rogue TARDIS that should not exist... A mutilated, comatose Time Lord who cannot be identified... A new castellan desperate to make his mark... Evils of the past, events of the present, and echoes of the future conspire to destroy the very heart of Gallifrey’s civilisation.

Only Romana can understand it -- but she is haunted by her own ghosts. Only Leela can sense it -- but she has unfinished business. Only Braxiatel can stop it -- but he cannot begin to guess the personal cost.

With both Narvin and Darkel waiting for Romana to make a mistake, the President must take decisions that will change Gallifrey forever. And an ancient evil is ready and waiting for just that moment...
