Product description -
'HOW DO YOU KILL SOMEONE?' ASKED THE DOCTOR. 'EVISCERATE THEM, CRUSH THEM, REVERSE THEIR PARTICLES. BUT DO THE DEAD ALWAYS STAY DEAD?'
The TARDIS brings the fourth Doctor, Romana and K-9 to the Rock of Judgement: a court, prison and place of execution built into a rocket-powered asteroid. There they become embroiled in an investigation by the system's finest lawman.
What connects the macabre gallery of artist Menlove Stokes with the slaughter of a survey team on a distant planet? Why is Margo, chief of security behaving so strangely? And which old enemies of the Doctor's are aboard the unmarked spaceship making its way towards the rock?
