Detective Sergeant Peter Grant takes a much-needed holiday up in Scotland. And he'll need one when this is over...

With his reality forever altered, Matt must quickly find a suitable place to deploy the Dungeon Core, fighting his way through the hundreds of people between him and safety, because if he doesn't do it soon, a Core Detonation will solve all of his problems for him....permanently.

All Detective Sergeant Peter Grant wanted was a nice holiday up in Scotland. He'll need one once this is over...
