About this listen
Christopher Naylor reads this original novel featuring the Doctor's former companion in his own adventure.
It's ten years since Harry Sullivan left UNIT and gave up his travels in the TARDIS with the Doctor and Sarah Jane.
Since then he has been engaged in top secret work, developing antidotes to nerve toxins. But when he is transferred to Yarra in the Hebrides to work on weapons research, he has severe misgivings. For one thing, it goes against much of what he believes in. For another, someone is out to kill Harry Sullivan.
Who wants Harry safely out of the way? What significance does Van Gogh painting have? And can Harry's old friend, the Brigadier, really be involved in a scheme which threatens the security of the Western World?
Reading produced by Morrison Ellis. Sound design by Oliver Denman. Executive producer for BBC Audiobooks: Michael Stevens
The novel’s chief strength lies in its characterisation of its protagonist. Ian Marter, intimately familiar with Harry from his time on-screen, depicts him exceptionally well here. While the narrative sometimes leans on Harry’s comedic clumsiness—a recurring element when he was with the Doctor—it also captures his good-natured, innocent charm. Harry’s well-intentioned, bumbling heroics as he tackles perilous situations evoke the suspense and tone of classics like ‘The Thirty-Nine Steps’ and ‘North by Northwest’.
