Publisher's summary[edit | edit source]

Turlough has joined the TARDIS — the snake in the orchard — and is trying, with limited success, to gain the others' trust.

But when they land in the Gardens of the Dead, the whole team — Nyssa, Tegan and Turlough — will have to join forces and fight together to keep the Doctor safe. And discover what is behind the very last door in the TARDIS.
