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.
