The
Doctor and Romana are enjoying
a well-earned break in Paris,
relaxing in the gentle delights
of the art galleries, the waterfront
cafes, the Eiffel Tower... and
the unexpected jumps in time
that no one else seems to notice...
Rare
treasures and once-lost masterpieces
are suddenly in auction houses
all over the world, the only
link to them all being the mysterious
Count Scarlioni. But what project
is he secretly financing in
the basement of his Paris chateau?
The
time-travellers meet up with
Duggan, a private detective
investigating the activities
of the Count and his accomplices.
Can Scarlioni be planning the
most audacious and daring of
all art thefts? Or are his ambitions
much grander? Big enough to
threaten the existence of the
entire human race...? |
