Past Doctor Adventure written by Steve Lyons © 1997
An original novel featuring the second Doctor, Ben and Polly
The faded glamour of a hotel in space, spinning in an all-but-forgotten
orbit round the Earth, is host to some unusual visitors this weekend -
including a party that claim to travel in a battered blue police box...
It is the year 2146. Answering a distress call from the dilapidated Hotel
Galaxian, the TARDIS crew discover a games enthusiast is using the hotel to
host a murder-mystery weekend. But it seems someone from his motley group of
guests is taking things a little too seriously.
While the Doctor, Ben and Polly find themselves joining in the shadowplay,
it becomes clear that a real-life murderer is stalking the dark, disused
corridors of the Galaxian. But worse than this: there's a sinister force
waiting silently in space for events to unfold. A terrible secret is hidden on
board the Galaxian, and if it is discovered nothing - least of all murder -
will ever be the same again. If this is a game, the stakes just got higher.
