Get ready to reach across the stars once more this December, as Big Finish release a new Star Cops audiobook
Created by Doctor Who writer Chris Boucher (The Face of Evil, The Robots of Death, Image of the Fendhal) Star Cops was a BBC series set on a moonbase in the far flung future of 2027. Led by Commander Nathan Spring, the International Space Police Force must contend with an offworld environment that’s become busy and complex enough to have its own criminal underworld. Now new Big Finish audiobook Sins of the Father continues the Star Cops’ adventures with a new case. Written by Mike Tucker (Bernice Summerfield, Doctor Who) and read by original cast member Trevor Cooper (Inspector Colin Devis) it finds Moonbase under attack from a mysterious killer who leaves disturbing messages at each victim’s demise, and whom the Star Cops must unmask while they still can…
Star Cops Producer Xanna Eve Chown summed up the concept. “Jack the Ripper in space!” she exclaims, “What more can you ask for? It’s always a pleasure to work with Mike and Andrew, and this is a fantastic book, with a storyline that is full of surprises and ideas as it unravels, keeping you guessing and thinking throughout.”
