About this ebook

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 is the work of the Judoon - a race of ruthless intergalactic mercenary 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?

Featuring the tenth Doctor and Martha as played by David Tennant and Freema Agyeman in the acclaimed hit Doctor Who series from BBC Television.

Ratings and reviews

You need to fire who ever is scanning these books it's rediculas the words are off the screen not lined up part of the next page can be seen on current and can't be seen on the next i don't have an issue with the story not that i can read it pls fix your app

Its nice that a King of England is part of the plot - makes it interesting. The brief fight between humans and the judoon is also good. This book is better than many of the other quick reads I have read so far.

I love Dr. Who and I am glad to see that they decided to go to Balmoral to take in the nice country air. Though it's not quiet for long as Balmoral is missing and it's the work of the Judoon. This time the Judoon were tricked because someone faked a memo saying the Earth has a new ruler. The Judoon are one of my favorite enemies because unlike the Daleks they have morals and will only bring others to justice. Besides there are way too many books with the Daleks invading some planet.
