About this listen
Susan Twist reads this brand new adventure for the Fifteenth Doctor.
"The storm is an omen. A beast is rising from the deep. The ocean will consumer us all. Fear death by water."
Northumberland, 1838. The TARDIS crash lands on board a sinking steamship. Stranded, the Doctor and the few survivors fight for their lives – while the local lighthouse keeper’s daughter, Grace Darling, risks her life to row to their rescue.
Lauded a heroine, Grace struggles to cope with her new-found fame. But the Doctor senses something else troubling Grace. She’s been tormented by the terrifying vision she saw out at sea in the storm. There’s a monster in her mind, wrecking ships and stealing the souls of the drowned.
And it’s real.
Susan Twist, who played Susan Triad in the Doctor Who TV series, reads Emily Cook's original novel featuring the Doctor, as played by Ncuti Gatwa.

On the planet Tython, the ancient Je’daii order was founded. And at the feet of its wise Masters, Lanoree Brock learned the mysteries and methods of the Force - and found her calling as one of its most powerful disciples. But as strongly as the Force flowed within Lanoree and her parents, it remained absent in her brother, who grew to despise and shun the Je’daii, and whose training in its ancient ways ended in tragedy. Now, from her solitary life as a Ranger keeping order across the galaxy, Lanoree has been summoned by the Je’daii Council on a matter of utmost urgency.
