About this listen

Dan Starkey reads a brand new audio adventure for the Eighth Doctor, set in Victorian Edinburgh. It's the late 1890s, and newspaper journalist James MacFarlane is on the trail of a supernatural entity. He's joined in his investigations by a mysterious stranger, who calls himself the Doctor and professes to know a lot about vampires.

As gangs of locals gather zombie-like on the city's streets, James and the Doctor find themselves on a dangerous trail to find the truth. What links the secretive Lord and Lady Elmhurst to local events? What strange force is luring ordinary men and women to a local quarry? The Doctor soon realises that the answers lie in his own past....

Dan Starkey, who played the Sontaran Strax in the TV series, reads this original story by Andrew Lane featuring the Eighth Doctor, as played on TV by Paul McGann.

This was a very good audiobook. I loved the setting, the plot, the history of the Time Lords. The narrator was very good, and you sort of forget that he's reading through entire book with how he manages different voices.

I was a little nervous trying this, because I've been bingeing my way through the Eighth Doctor Big Finish audiobooks for the last few months, but I'm glad that I did, and it was well worth the read.

Very Good
