In his first-ever Doctor Who novel, Tom Baker's incredible imagination
is given free rein. A story so epic it was originally intended for the
big screen, Scratchman is a gripping, white-knuckle thriller almost
forty years in the making.
The Doctor, Harry and Sarah Jane Smith arrive at a remote Scottish
island, when their holiday is cut short by the appearance of strange
creatures - hideous scarecrows, who are preying on the local population.
The islanders are living in fear, and the Doctor vows to save them all.
But it doesn't go to plan - the time travellers have fallen into a trap,
and Scratchman is coming for them.
With the fate of the universe hanging in the balance, the Doctor must
battle an ancient force from another dimension, one who claims to be the
Devil. Scratchman wants to know what the Doctor is most afraid of. And
the Doctor's worst nightmares are coming out to play...
Tom Baker himself reads this legendary Doctor Who adventure, a
spine-chilling thriller forty years in the making.
