Book description
Castle Extremis - whoever holds it can control the provinces either
side that have been at war for centuries. Now the castle is about to
play host to the signing of a peace treaty. But as the Doctor and
Martha find out, not everyone wants the war to end.
Who is the strange little girl who haunts the castle? What is the
secret of the book the Doctor finds, its pages made from thin, brittle
glass? Who is the hooded figure that watches from the shadows? And
what is the secret of the legendary Mortal Mirror?
The Doctor and Martha don't have long to find the answers - an army
is on the march, and the castle will soon be under siege once more...
Featuring the Tenth Doctor and Martha as played by David Tennant and
Freema Agyeman in the hit sci-fi series from BBC Television.
