The Hollow Men

The village was cursed centuries ago, but only now is the alien evil beginning to revive...

The children of Hexen Bridge are gifted and clever, but insanity and
murder follow in their wake. The Doctor has a special interest in the
village, but on his return to England in the early twenty-first century
events seem to be escalating out of control.

Kidnapped and taken to Liverpool, the Doctor realises that
developments in Hexen Bridge have horrifying repercussions for the rest
of the country. Ace is left in the village, where small-minded
prejudices and unsettled scores are flaring into violence.

As scarecrows fashioned from the bodies of the recent and ancient
dead stalk the country lanes around Hexen Bridge, a sinister dark stain
is spreading over the surrounding fields. And as the fierce evil grows
ever stronger, can the Doctor and Ace prevent it from engulfing the
entire world?

Featuring the Seventh Doctor and Ace, this adventure takes place between the TV stories The Curse of Fenric and Survival.
