back cover blurb

Anji Kapoor has just had the worst week of her entire life, and things aren't getting any better. She should be back at her desk, not travelling through time and space in a police box with a couple of strange men.

The Doctor (Strange Man No.1) is supposed to be returning her to Soho 2001 AD. So quite why there are dinosaurs outside Anji isn't sure. Sad sixties refugee Fitz (Strange Man No.2) seems to think they're either in prehistoric times or on a parallel Earth. And the Doctor, that dashing, time-travelling hero, is probably only pretending to know what's going on because if he really knew, surely he would have mentioned the homicidal triplet princesses, the teen terrorists, the deadly android doubles (and triples) and the hosts of mad robots?

She's never going to complain about Monday mornings in the office again...
