Publisher's summary
Elvis the King Spaceport has grown into the sprawling city-state of New Memphis - an urban jungle, where organized crime is rife. But the launch of the new Terminal 13 hasn't been as smooth as expected. And things are about to get worse... When the Doctor arrives, he finds the whole terminal locked down. The notorious Invisible Assassin is at work again, and the Judoon troopers sent to catch him will stop at nothing to complete their mission. With the assassin loose on the mean streets of New Memphis, the Doctor is forced into a strange alliance. Together with teenage private eye Nikki and a ruthless Judoon Commander, the Doctor soon discovers that things are even more complicated - and dangerous - than he first thought...

Timeline
- Judgement of the Judoon occurs after The Rising Night
- Judgement of the Judoon occurs before DWBIT: Da Vinci's Robots
Continuity
- The Judoon first appeared on screen in DW: Smith and Jones and last appeared in novel form in NSA: Revenge of the Judoon.
- This book, as the Doctor is traveling alone, likely occurs during the timeframe of the 2009 specials. This is likely, as Nikki thinks that the Doctor is "running from something" - most likely his impending regeneration.
