[edit] Synopsis
The Doctor arrives in New Memphis, a spaceport formerly known as "Elvis the King Spaceport", which has grown into a vast city-state. It is set to open Terminal 13, but problems develop, and the Doctor faces a lockdown situation. A notorious criminal, the Invisible Assassin, is at large, and Judoon troopers are sent to apprehend him. The Doctor partners with a Judoon Commander and a teenage private detective named Nikki Jupiter. This last character is a homage to the tv series Veronica Mars, where a young girl works in her fathers detective agency.
[edit] Audiobook
An unabridged audiobook was released in June 2010 on download only, read by Nicholas Briggs who provides the voices of the Judoon on the Television series.
