Book description
'Are you trying to tell me, Captain Harkness, that the entire staff
of Torchwood Cardiff now consists of yourself, a woman in
trousers and a tea boy?'
Agnes Havisham is awake, and Jack is worried (and not a little
afraid). The Torchwood Assessor is roused from her deep sleep in only
the worst of times - it's happened just four times in the last 100
years. Can the situation really be so bad?
Someone, somewhere, is fighting a war, and they're losing badly. The
coffins of the dead are coming through the Rift. With thousands of
alien bodies floating in the Bristol Channel, it's down to
Torchwood to round them all up before a lethal plague breaks out.
And now they'll have to do it by the book. The 1901 edition.
Featuring Captain Jack Harkness as played by John Barrowman, with
Gwen Cooper and Ianto Jones as played by Eve Myles and Gareth
David-Lloyd, in the hit sci-fi series created by Russell T Davies
for BBC Television.
