The Cold War is over, the Millennium is fast approaching, and Brigadier Winifred Bambera is the new head of UNIT.
But in this shadowy, unpredictable world of deadly threats and hidden
enemies, Bambera and her new team - Sergeant Jean-Paul Savarin and Dr
Louise Rix - will need to prove their mettle. The stakes are higher than
ever.
1.1 Rogue State by Robert Valentine
In the war-torn republic of Valge Maja, Brigadier Bambera is hot on the
trail of arms-dealing terrorist, Roman Krojac, when she’s ordered back
to Geneva. Her old sponsor, Dame Lydia Kingsley, offers her a job as the
new head of UNIT. Reluctant to accept, she nevertheless teams up with
sarcastic UNIT officer Sergeant Jean-Paul Savarin to prevent a monstrous
Soviet-era weapon from falling into Krojac’s hands.
1.2 Time Flies by Alison Winter
Bambera and Savarin are summoned to a secretive genetic research
facility by Dr Louise Rix, UNIT’s rebellious new scientific adviser. Two
scientists have vanished in mysterious circumstances, and despite the
assurances of the sinister Dr Grange, UNIT suspects there’s something
very wrong with the centre’s caterpillar population. Can they survive
the fruits of Dr Grange’s experiments? And will Savarin survive Bambera
and Rix’s rocky new relationship?
1.3 Dark Side of the Moon by Alfie Shaw
A new British space station, the Britannia, is due to be
launched at the end of the week, but Bambera, Rix and Savarin fear that
some kind of psychic entity is trying to sabotage it. Is it really the
spirit of Helena McNamara, deceased astronaut and old friend of Rix? And
does it speak the truth when it warns that something terrible is
waiting for humanity on the dark side of the moon?
