Note: A standalone fictional novel which examines the Doctor’s possible role in the JFK assassination. The Doctor himself only appears in a small cameo, but The Master and several companions feature prominently (including the Brigadier, Liz Shaw and Dodo). Written almost entirely in the first person by the book’s protagonist, fictional journalist James Stevens — whose name is listed as the book’s co-author to further blur the line between fiction and reality! (David Bishop is in fact the ‘real’ author.) Also available as a free downloadable e-book from the New Zealand Doctor Who Fan Club site. Cover blurb: President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas on 22 November, 1963. Now, the publication of this volume reveals frightening new information about the assassination, the real reasons why the President of the United States had to die and an incredible plan to save the man known as JFK! These stunning revelations involve an ultra-secret military force disguised as a minor off-shoot of the United Nations and an international terrorist leader who has twice brought to the world to the brink of nuclear conflict. For more than three decades the public has been fed lies, half-truths and misinformation. Now — despite government attempts to halt the publication of this volume — the complete, shocking story can be told. Read the book they tried to ban! |
