Doctor Who: Summer Falls and Other Stories

"Doctor Who: Quando cair o verão e outras histórias" é um livro de contos inspirados em episódios da série britânica Doctor Who, que em novembro de 2013 completou 50 anos no ar. A obra reúne três contos: "Quando cair o verão", de Amelia Williams; "O Beijo do Anjo", de Melody Malone; e "O Demônio na fumaça", narrado pelo Sr. Justin Richards. O livro traz ainda uma rara entrevista com Amelia Williams, a reclusa autora de A garota que nunca cresceu, e uma nova introdução escrita por ela. Inspirado no episódio "The Bells of Saint John", "Quando cair o verão" narra a história da jovem Kate, que passa suas férias na vila litorânea de Watchcombe e está determinada a aproveitar ao máximo sua última semana de folga. No entanto, ao descobrir uma misteriosa pintura chamada "O Senhor do Inverno", ela viverá aventuras que jamais poderia ter imaginado. Em "O Beijo do Anjo", inspirado em "The Angels Take Manhattan", a detetive particular Melody Malone recebe uma visita inesperada: o astro de cinema Rock Railton. Ele acredita que alguém quer matá-lo e, quando menciona "o beijo do anjo", Melody aceita o caso. E com o passar do tempo, a detetive logo descobre que o preço da fama é maior do que ela poderia imaginar. Narrado por Justin Richards e inspirado pelo episódio "The Snowmen", "O Demônio na fumaça", é um thriller no qual dois garotinhos, cansados de limpar a neve do pátio do orfanato, decidem fazer um boneco de neve — e se deparam com um mistério brutal. Fascinados e horrorizados, testemunham quando o boneco de neve começa a sangrar. A busca por respostas levará Harry, um dos meninos, à aventura mais perigosa e empolgante de sua vida.
