The second instalment of the most recent Dark Gallifrey strand, takes us to 18th century Venice – a suitably spooky location for the creepiest Master of them all. Geoffrey Beevers once again assumes the role that he first took on in 1981’s The Keeper of Traken.

Across the canals, stories of Lupo’s genius fill the air. He’s the greatest mask-maker in the republic’s history, but he has a dark past, on a burned-sienna planet galaxies away… where he made a pact, and an exceedingly powerful enemy. And now that enemy is coming to unleash his nightmarish powers on the majestic floating city.
