Corpse Marker

Chris Boucher

1999

After they had lost the Storm Miner Uvanov, Toos and Poul were feted as heroes and given rewards consummate with their ambitions. Uvanov was angling for a post on the Board and Toos had got command of her own Storm Miner. Poul had the best possible therapy and an undemanding job in Security.
Of them all, Uvanov appeared the most normal as he headed the mysterious Android research team.
Toos doesn't mind androids, honest. She just won't have them on the bridge of her Storm Miner. Fortunately, she's a good enough captain that her crew could live with her foibles.
Poul has screaming fits every time he sees a robot. But he's OK. Honest!
When the Doctor and Leela appear in a strange building containing a massive number of people in suspended animation chambers, Leela reckons she can hear the sound of fighting. The Doctor disagrees, so Leela goes off on her own while he investigates the suspended animation chambers.
Outside, Leela is caught up in a terrorist raid and taken prisoner by the terrorists who swore by Taren Capel, dead these past twenty years as Leela knew all too well.
Inside, the Doctor is startled to find the suspended animation chambers suddenly beginning to decant their contents. Those being freed proved to be very strange and the Doctor is soon involved in a strange game of 'Simon Says' before being liberated by Uvanov.
Unknown to Uvanov and most of the Board, there's a third group of senior Twenty Family members raising plots in order to try and hold on to their powers and privileges.
Unknown to all the humans, there's a robotic interest in the growing chaos.
Can the people of Kaldor City get over the effects of this robotic rebellion, for their society depended on the robots being peaceful and obedient to human orders!
