The Vega Station - a haven for gamblers, art lovers and duty-free shoppers, the one place where the Battrulians and their erstwhile enemies, the Canvine, meet and mix, in neutral space.  A pressure point, an explosive mixture.  And just as the new president of Battrul is about to arrive, the TARDIS crew turn up.

Fitz is in trouble.  He's accidentally got himself hired as an assassin while trying to emulate James Bond.  And he's upset Bigdog Caruso, the unofficial Canvine leader on Vega.

Sam is in trouble.  She's become involved with the key witness to a murder, and the witness has vanished.

The Doctor, meanwhile, has been roped into help with investigations into robbery, sabotage and the murder, as well as to sort out Fitz's problems, Sam's problems, and the President's safety.  He's in his element.

And if they should get bored, there's a hitman on the loose, monsters roaming the station corridors, and exhibition of art by a painter who depicted his own death, and the opera.

Author(s)

Justin Richards  
Birth: 14 Sep 1961 Epping, Essex, United Kingdom
Notes:
From the back of the book Time Zero

Justin Richards has no cat.  He might (or might not) have had a cat when he was a child, but if he did he never ever put it in a box.  He does have two children, but that's not the same thing at all.  Believe me, if you have a cat and you're thinking of trading up for kids, there is a big difference.

When he isn't busy with his children, Justin acts as Creative Consultant to BBC Worldwide's various Doctor Who book ranges as well as doing some writing of his own - novels, audios, television, non fiction and other 'stuff'.  Presumably this is done during the time he would have had to spend with the cat, so given that Justin never has enough time for writing, he's thinking of not getting another one.

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
