Mission: Impractical
(David A.
McIntee) |
|
On the Back Cover:
 When
daring criminal Jack Chance masterminds the heist of a precious national
treasure from the planet Veltroch, it is the first step in a chain of events
that could lead to the destruction of two civilisations.
Pursued by
bounty hunters, The Doctor and his shapeshifting companion Frobisher run into
old acquaintances Glitz and Dibber, notorious rogues who have become involved
in something big: a covert government agency on Vandor Prime is forcing the
pair to turn their criminal talents to its own ends.
The Doctor
and Frobisher are soon drawn into the mysterious scheme themselves, but what
game is truly being played by the authorities? How are a group of Ogron raiders
involved? And who is so desperate to see The Doctor dead?
Caught in
a web of deceit and pursued by ruthless killers, The Doctor's mission, should
he decide to accept it, is to join Glitz's gang and pull off the crime of the
century. And failure will result in an interstellar war costing the lives of
millions... |
