The Doctor is being interrogated on Gallifrey and is being asked to account for his actions. The main story emerges in which the Doctor, Sarah Jane and Harry land on a remote island where people are turning into scarecrows. But this quickly turns into something more surreal as the Doctor, Sarah and Harry end up in a strange dimension where the enemy is the Scratchman, i.e. the Devil. I'm a little perturbed when the narrative focus slips. This is largely written in the Doctor's first person point of view, but sometimes shifts into what Harry and Sarah Jane (and secondary characters) are getting up to and thinking. Am I being too persnickity? Is it something only an author would notice? To be honest it doesn't really spoil the enjoyment, but it is noticeable.</span></p><br /><br /><img src="https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=jacey&ditemid=758894" width="30" height="12" alt="comment count unavailable" style="vertical-align: middle;"/> comments
