Cover blurb:
Nothing could disturb the serene peace of the planet Deva Loka — or could it? An expeditionary force from Earth is dangerously out of control — and it’s not only the peaceful race of the Kinda who are at risk...

A gentle stroll in the lush jungle leads the Doctor and Adric to an unexpected confrontation — and puts them at the mercy of a maniac...

But it is Tegan, lulled to sleep by mysterious wind-chimes, who comes closest to the real danger that threatens not only her sanity but the existence of the whole planet...

Cover blurb:
Tegan was trapped in a nightmare world, a world inhabited by ghosts who refused to believe in her...

Nothing could disturb the serene peace of the planet Deva Loka — or could it? An expeditionary force from Earth is dangerously out of control, and everything — not just the peaceful race of the Kinda — is at risk.

A gentle stroll in the lush jungle leads the Doctor and Adric to an unexpected confrontation and puts them at the mercy of a maniac. But it is Tegan, lulled to sleep by mysterious wind-chimes, who comes closest to the real danger that threatens not only her sanity but the existence of the entire planet.

First broadcast in 1982, Kinda was written by Christopher Bailey. This adaptation is by Terrance Dicks, who was the script editor of the series for five years and who is also the author of Timewyrm: Exodus.
