Publisher's summary
With the first objective of his mission reached, almost nothing is going to plan for the Doctor. He finds he cannot contact or return to the Time Lord's home planet, Gallifrey. And just when Molly O'Sullivan thinks she’s escaped one conflict, she finds herself in the thick of another one.
What is it that connects the Doctor, the Daleks and the mysterious Ides Scientific Institute?

Notes
Continuity
- The Doctor knows how to fly a plane, and proceeds to do so. He forgets this skill by TV: The Bells of Saint John.
- The First Doctor previously witnessed the evacuation of the British Army from Dunkirk in May 1940. (PROSE: Just War, PROSE: Byzantium!)
- Molly assumes that Gallifrey is in Ireland. (TV: The Hand of Fear, TV: Human Nature)
- The Doctor visits 107 Baker Street, the house in which he lived during his fifth incarnation from November 1866 to November 1867. (AUDIO: The Haunting of Thomas Brewster) In 2008, he left the house to his companion Thomas Brewster. (AUDIO: A Perfect World)
- Due to the fact that Kotris was erased from history, these events never happened. The Doctor, Molly and the Dalek time controller are the only individuals who remember the original timeline. (AUDIO: X and the Daleks)
