Plot summary

It's 2003 and the Scottish capital of Edinburgh is being terrorized by a bombing campaign. The Doctor's friends are entrapped by these events and the Doctor himself crippled by bizarre chest paints. The problems are not limited to Scotland, as evidence shows London is somehow connected. And through that, the entirety of all time and space. And the Doctor keeps feeling worse...
