Book Reviews of Trace Memory (Torchwood)
Book Review: Past and Present Collide
Summary: 5 Stars
A young man claiming to be from 1953 materialises inside the Hub. Although he doesn't know them, the Torchwood team soon realise that they have each encountered him before.
This is possibly the best Torchwood tie-in novel to date. The time-travel aspect of the story is very nicely done. Although the action flips repeatedly between the present and the past, it is never confusing and we get to learn a little more about the main characters. There are a couple of nifty twists, but I can't discuss them without spoiling the surprise. Suffice it to say, this fast-paced book has a wonderful bittersweetness to it that will satisfy Torchwood fans everywhere.
Summary of Trace Memory (Torchwood)
Tiger Bay, Cardiff, 1950: A mysterious crate is brought into the docks on a Scandinavian cargo ship, the Kungssangen. Its destination: The Torchwood Institute. As the crate is offloaded by a group of local dockers it explodes, killing all but one; a young Butetown lad called Michael Bellini. Fifty-eight years later a radioactive source somewhere inside Torchwood leads the team to discover the same Michael Bellini, still young and dressed in his 1950s clothes, cowering in the vaults. As they question the intruder, it becomes apparent that each of them has met him in the past. All of them remember him talking incoherently about terrifying "Men In Bowler Hats" and little more, but it's Jack who remembers him best of all...Literature & Fiction Books
