The Lost Boy was released in November 2008, a full year after the last release of novelisations. It adapts The Lost Boy, the final regular serial of The Sarah Jane Adventures first series.

It is the first time a complete season of a Doctor Who-related series had been fully adapted in novelisation form within a year of original broadcast.
Publisher's summary
Life on Earth can be an adventure, too. You just need to know where to look.
Sarah Jane is shocked to see an appeal on television by distraught parents of a missing boy - Luke, her adopted son! She is accused of kidnapping him and has to hand Luke over to his 'real' parents.
