On the Back Cover:
 He did
not know if his powers could save him until the horses' hooves had crushed his
ribs and his heart had stopped beating. After that, it was obvious.
1880s France: the corrupt world of the Third Republic. A
clandestine brotherhood is engaged in a desperate internal power struggle; a
race of beings seeks to free itself from perpetual oppression; and a rip in
time threatens an entire city. The future of Europe is at stake, in a war
fought with minds and bodies altered to the limits of human evolution.
Chris finds himself working undercover with a suspicious
French gendarme; Roz follows a psychic artist whose talents are attracting the
attention of mysterious forces; and The Doctor befriends a shape-shifting
member of a terrifying family. And, at the heart of it all, a dark and
disturbing injustice is being perpetrated. Only an end to the secret war, and
the salvation of an entire race, can prevent Paris from being utterly
destroyed. |
