About the Book
The Doctor, Amy and Rory round off a sight–seeing tour round London with a trip to the theatre. That’s when things start to go wrong.
The Doctor wonders why so many young girls are going missing from the area. When he sees Sammy Star’s amazing magic act, he thinks he knows the answer. Sammy’s glamorous assistant disappears at the climax of the act – but this is no stage trick.
The Doctor and his friends team up with residents of an old people’s home to discover the truth. And together they find themselves face to face with a deadly Weeping Angel.
Whatever you do – don’t blink!

Chapter One
AMY POND LOOKED at the plastic bowler hat with a Union Jack pattern. ‘You’re not really going to wear that, are you?’ she asked the Doctor.
The Doctor smiled and raised the hat politely. ‘Yes. It’s cool. So is my T-shirt. ’
He was wearing a white T-shirt with the slogan
Amy rolled her eyes. ‘I can’t believe you got them to print that for you!’
‘At least he didn’t buy the T-shirt that said
‘Of course I wouldn’t,’ said the Doctor. ‘I don’t think you’re stupid at all.
Now, come on, stupid, we’re missing the tour!’The three friends were on the upper deck of an open-top red London bus. The sun was beating down, but the Doctor still wore a tweed jacket over his T-shirt. He was sitting at the front next to the tour guide. Amy and Rory sat on the seat behind them.
The tour guide, whose name was Janet, was trying to talk about London landmarks. The Doctor was joining in, but his efforts just seemed to get on Janet’s nerves.
‘On your left you can see the Tower of London,’ Janet began. ‘Building started in the year 1066. ’
‘I’ve been locked up in there five or six times,’ said the Doctor. He pointed towards the castle. ‘If you squint, you can see my room. It’s that window there. ’
Janet’s microphone picked up the Doctor’s words. The other tourists laughed, but Janet ignored him.
‘There’s also a top secret base below the tower,’ said the Doctor.
Amy tapped him on the shoulder before he could say any more. ‘If it’s top secret, perhaps you shouldn’t mention it,’ she said.
The Doctor nodded. ‘Good point. ’ He mimed pulling a zip across his mouth.
