Description

Charlie Foster and The Guardians of Time Investigative journalist, Charlie Foster, is forced into premature retirement after a physical confrontation with the owner of Dixons News Agency - the place he'd worked for most of his life. His colleague and protege, the beautiful Mabel Derbyshire, suggests he 'goes it alone' and work freelance. Over the next week or so, Charlie investigates the disappearance of a young lad on a Scottish moor and the discovery of a 'strange' body in the same area. When governmental intervention insists he 'back off', it's like a red rag to a bull where Charlie Foster is concerned. Charlie forms an unlikely alliance with a professor of physics and a retired director of the Secret Intelligence Service (S.I.S.). Together - with his pal D.C.I Fred Tingwell - Charlie & Co., investigate the workings of a secretive army camp high in the Scottish moors. What they find beggars belief and casts all manner of doubt on their combined efforts. Yet, strange and unaccountable forces bring them all closer together in a way none of them ever imagined possible. T.J.
