This is a distinct new era for UNIT. Set in the late 1990s, the Cold War is over and the geopolitical
landscape is in flux. Brigadier Bambera is deemed the right candidate to lead UNIT into the 21st century.
But in this shadowy, unpredictable world of deadly threats and hidden enemies, Bambera and her new
team - including sarcastic second-in-command, Sergeant Jean-Paul Savarin and tough scientific advisor,
Dr Louise Rix - will need to prove their mettle. The stakes are higher than ever.
1. Rogue State by Robert Valentine
In the war-torn republic of Valge Maja, Brigadier Bambera is hot on the trail of arms-dealing terrorist
Roman Krojac, when she's ordered back to Geneva. Her old sponsor, Dame Lydia Kingsley, offers her a
job as the new head of UNIT. Reluctant to accept, she nevertheless teams up with sarcastic UNIT officer
Sergeant Jean-Paul Savarin to prevent a monstrous Soviet-era weapon from falling into Krojac's hands.
2. Time Flies by Alison Winter
Bambera and Savarin are summoned to a secretive genetic research facility by Dr Louise Rix, UNIT's
rebellious new scientific adviser. Two scientists have vanished in mysterious circumstances, and despite
the assurances of the sinister Dr Grange, UNIT suspects there's something very wrong with the centre's
caterpillar population. Can they survive the fruits of Dr Grange's experiments? And will Savarin survive
Bambera and Rix's rocky new relationship?
3. Dark Side of the Moon by Alfie Shaw
A new British space station, the Britannia, is due to be launched at the end of the week, but Bambera,
Rix and Savarin fear that some kind of psychic entity is trying to sabotage it. Is it really the spirit of
Helena McNamara, deceased astronaut and old friend of Rix? And does it speak the truth when it warns
that something terrible is waiting for humanity on the dark side of the moon?
