Publisher's summary
The future is dying. All over the universe, gaps are beginning to appear. From the space lanes terrorised by the rag-tag remnants of the once-mighty Rocket Men, to the empire of the Gorlans, stricken by a terrible civil war. Gaps in space/time, portents of the end of everything.

Only three beings might prevent it. The Doctor, a renegade Time Lord from Gallifrey. , another renegade Time Lord from Gallifrey. And, yet another renegade Time Lord from Gallifrey.

One Doctor. Two Masters. What could possibly go wrong?

 * During the first confrontation between the two Masters, the new Master is responsible for the decayed Master being reduced to his current state; this appears to contradict PROSE: Legacy of the Daleks, where the Master's condition is caused by Susan destroying a Matter transmuter in his TARDIS with his Tissue Compression Eliminator. However, since the novel only depicts the Master being thrown from his TARDIS and being later discovered by Chancellor Goth, rather than explicitly stating that he is reduced to his crippled state by the blast, the two can be reconciled with the assumption that the younger Master survived Susan's attack and subsequently found another TARDIS to begin his raid on the Terserus compound, leading to his future self's attack.
 * The Doctor would later reboot the universe again during his eleventh incarnation. (TV: The Big Bang)
