Big Finish Special Release
Holy terrorizing, batman! Louise Jameson plays quite the interesting character in this story. She tells the story she remembers in as many different variations as she remembers. There is a computer software program that a team of scientists created that can predict where a spaceship is going to be based on various factors. That team was sequestered on a planet where the Federation was adding sedatives into the water until Blake’s team put a stop to it. This is some time after that. Avon picks up the unnamed woman, escorts her to the site where the scientists did their work, and she tells the story as she begins to remember it.
There is not a lot to the action in this story, just a lot of remembering of action and a story by Jameson. But it builds the tension as it goes along and I felt like I was dragged through the proverbial mud when it was all done too. Not quite the point of needing to scrub my brain but it could use a good washing off. The motivation of Jameson’s character is very human but very much sounds like she lives to please others. There’s only surface discussion of not disappointing her mother but they really don’t need to go down that road, thankfully. This lady is a bit of a nut job all on her own! It is a brutal world these people live in, that is for sure.
