A thrilling, all-new adventure featuring the Doctor as played by Matt Smith
in the spectacular hit series from BBC Television.

‘They like the Shadows. You know them as Plague Warriors…’

When the Doctor arrives in the 19th-century village of Klimtenburg, he discovers the residents suffering from some kind of plague – a ‘wasting disease’. The victims face a horrible death – but what’s worse, the dead seem to be leaving their graves. The Plague Warriors have returned…

The Doctor is confident he knows what’s really happening; he understands where the dead go, and he’s sure the Plague Warriors are just a myth. But as some of the Doctor’s oldest and most terrible enemies start to awaken he realises that maybe – just maybe – he’s misjudged the situation.

Justin Richards is the Creative Consultant for the BBC's range of Doctor Who books, and has written numerous science-fiction and fantasy novels, including several of the Doctor Who tie-ins. He also writes for stage, screen, and audio, and has cowritten several action thrillers for older children with thriller writer Jack Higgins. Married with two children (both boys), Justin lives and works in Warwick, within sight of one of Britain's best-preserved castles.
