Publisher's Summary

The TARDIS brings the Doctor and Martha to Balmoral in 1902. Here they meet Captain Harry Carruthers-friend of the new king, Edward VII. Together they head for the castle to see the king-only to find that Balmoral Castle is gone, leaving just a hole in the ground. The Doctor realises it it the work of the Judoon-a race of ruthless space police. While Martha and Carruthers seek answers in London, the Doctor finds himself in what should be the most deserted place on Earth-and he is not alone. With help from Arthur Conan Doyle, the Doctor and his friends discover a plot to take over the world. With time running out who will fall victim to the Revenge of the Judoon
