SYNOPSIS

It is ten years since Harry Sullivan left UNIT and gave up his travels in the TARDIS with The Doctor and Sarah.

Since then he has been engaged in top secret work, developing antidotes to nerve toxins. But when he is transferred to Yarra in the Hebrides to work on weapons research, he has severe misgivings. Forone thing, it goes against much of what he believes in. For another, someone is out to kill Harry Sullivan.

Who wants Harry safely out of the way? What significance does a painting by Van Gogh have in the affair?

And can Harry’s old friend, the Brigadier, really be involved in a scheme which threatens the security of the Western World?

Harry Sullivan’s War was a novel that featured Harry Sullivan. It was written by Ian Marter.

The Brigadier tells Harry that he is now teaching Maths at Brendon Public School. (Mawdryn Undead)
Harry refers to his encounters with the Daleks (Genesis of the Daleks), the Cybermen (Revenge of the Cybermen) and the Zygons (Terror of the Zygons).

MI5 are aware of Davros, due to his involvement in the Shorch Incident in November 1963. (Remembrance of the Daleks)

Esther Bland occasionally visited Harry while he was posted at the Faslane submarine base in the early 1970s. (The Face of the Enemy)

Harry Sullivan’s War is written in such a style that Harry appears in every single scene, and thus the reader never knows more than Harry knows – there are no cutaways to what the villains are planning, for example.
