Plot outline[[edit] | [edit source]]
After a series of disappearances at SkyPoint, Cardiff's new and "most desirable" apartment block, Torchwood Three begin an undercover investigation.
Notes[[edit] | [edit source]]
- Earlier drafts of the story depicted a "run-down" apartment, rather than a new one. Ford stated that he was inspired to change it by the sight of new tower blocks being built every time he visited Cardiff, recalling one particular occasion at Cardiff Station and seeing several cranes across the cityscape.[1]
- Regarding the story's novel adaption, Ford stated: "When I got approached to write one of the novels, I thought, I always did like that idea! It's great when there's an opportunity to use an idea that's been in the bottom drawer."[1]
Footnotes[[edit] | [edit source]]
