The Bodysnatchers (Mark
Morris) |
|
On the Back Cover:
It is
London, 1894. Amid the fog, cold and degradation, a gruesome business is being
conducted. The bodies of the dead are being stolen from their graves - men,
women and children alike - for the sinister purpose of a very mysterious
gentleman.
When The Doctor and Sam arrive, they are witness to a
horrifying scene in the evil-smelling fog: something rises up from the filthy
waters of the Thames and devours a man - a man terrified for his life and on
the run from the devil himself...
Teaming
with an old friend, pathologist Professor George Litefoot, The Doctor is
determined to get to the bottom of the mystery. Together with Sam, they
discover there is a far graver threat facing London than just earthly grave
robbers. Deadly alien beings The Doctor has encountered before are at work, and
they bring a whole new twist to the word 'bodysnatchers'... |
