Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The black despair that I had felt that morning came back to me. It was sicker and huger and more terribly unreal as the information was finally brought to light, dug out of the flight recorders of the three Wrens. "Wing wrack failure; inertialess lapse at critical point; the rotors ripped off; the craft destroyed. How can that be?" The Doctor's voice was strange, muffled, his words full of pain and puzzlement. His head was shaking as he went over the details of the three wrecked craft, "How could they all suffer exactly the same fault at almost exactly the same time; all at once? I don't understand it." I heard the quiet tread of the Master as he turned away from the portal and came towards us over the empty floor. I knew then that I would never get another chance. In my left hand I snatched a spare magazine, in my right I scooped up the heavy pistol from where the Doctor had laid it before he sat down. I took three swift paces away from the Doctor so he couldn't intervene and pointed the weapon straight at the Master. "Who are you?" I asked coldly, my eyes steady along the sights.
