By Hook or By Crook (comic story)

Summary
The Doctor takes Izzy to the cosmopolitan city-state of Tor-Ka-Nom, but she’s too busy reading a book about its history to go exploring with him. After a brief argument, the Doctor sets off on his own, and enters a jam shop only to find that the merchant has been killed by a madman with a hook for a hand. He tries to remove the madman’s hook, but the killer knocks him out and flees, and when the Doctor wakes, he finds himself surrounded by police, lying next to a dead body with the murder weapon in his hand. He is charged not only for this murder but for six similar crimes, and by the time Izzy tracks him down he’s already been sentenced to death. She is arrested herself when she tries to free him, but as the Doctor is taken away to be executed, Izzy realises what day it is, and uses her one phone call to send an anonymous tip to the police. The police thus catch the real killer and release the Doctor and Izzy. As they depart, Izzy explains that she had read the story of the case in her history book.
