Big Finish has released story details and the cover artwork for the next box set based on the cult-classic TV series Star Cops, due for release in November 2022.

In The High Frontier — 1, original cast members David Calder (Commander Nathan Spring), Trevor Cooper (Inspector Colin Devis), and Linda Newton (Acting Chief Superintendent Pal Kenzy) reprise their roles, alongside Philip Olivier (Inspector Paul Bailey), to investigate murder, kidnappings, and drug trafficking.

It’s the near future, and mankind has expanded its presence in space. Maintaining law and order beyond Earth is the responsibility of the International Space Police Force, known colloquially as the Star Cops. Their leader is Commander Nathan Spring. 

Dead Air by Roland Moore 

When Sonia Garrett dies during a routine moonwalk, the Star Cops suspect that her suit was sabotaged.

He knows exactly who killed Sonia Garrett. Aliens!

Hostile Takeover by Rossa McPhillips 

A crashed shuttle with no passengers or crew on board. The murder of a gangster. The kidnapping of a space station union leader. What connects all three cases?  As Nathan’s team investigate they encounter Alice Okoro, a corporate investigator for Wolfe International. What is her agenda? Is she there to hinder or help the Star Cops?

Death in the Desert by Sarah Grochala 

When the sister of Lee Jones, his deceased former lover, is kidnapped from a research lab in Chad, Nathan travels to Earth to investigate in person.  At the same time, Paul and Devis discover evidence that someone may have found a way to smuggle narcotics onto the Moon, bypassing drugs testing.  As both investigations progress, an enemy of the Star Cops sees an opportunity to close a trap.

Producer Emma Haigh said: “I’m so excited to be back on the Moon with the Star Cops. It’s great to be working again with Nathan, Pal and Devis. These brand-new stories also take our Star Cops Earth-side where they’ll meet contacts from the past, as well as learn of a new enemy, which could lead to deadly consequences. Buckle up for take-off!”
