Publisher's summary
Part one
The Doctor, Cass and Alex land to find out what's causing temporal anomalies with the TARDIS, and come across an uninhabited planet, a mysterious factory, and a weapon so dangerous, it could destroy the Universe. But things go catastrophically wrong…
Part two
Part Two: The factory has vanished along with the TARDIS, and the formerly uninhabited planet is now fully populated by people who have been here for thousands of years, people who have never heard of the Time War OR Daleks. Something very strange is going on with time itself - and it's running out, fast.
Plot
Part one
After an explosion, the Doctor, Alex and Cass find that the planet that they are on has gone from being entirely uninhabited to resembling Ancient Egypt. They are arrested, learning that the people of the planet are somehow unaware of the Daleks and the Time War, and the Doctor is interrogated by Oshia and Kade, whom he asks to find the TARDIS. When it is Cass's turn to be interrogated, she explains what happened.
The Doctor crash-lands the TARDIS after it proves unable to lock onto any one timeline or materialise at any specific point and is confused by only being with Alex and Cass, believing that a fourth person had been with them. The planet is supposed to be uninhabited, but they find a factory converted from a Dalek ship where the Daleks are using a Battle TARDIS to power temporal interocitors and emergency time-distortion devices and build a retcon bomb; the bomb could create a massive time corridor to rewrite history, which the Doctor says they will have to prevent by imploding the factory. Whilst Alex and Cass distract the Daleks, the Doctor examines the Battle TARDIS and initiates a lockdown when he is caught.
Cass explains that the factory then blew up and that they were arrested, despite the fact that no city or monument had previously been there. Oshia and Kade report to the region's co-coordinator, Davon, who orders them to use torture to force a confession from the Doctor, Alex and Cass so that they can be executed. Davon threatens them into compliance when they show hesitation, but Oshia asks Kade to give her the afternoon to interrogate Alex and avoid having to resort to torture. After Alex's interrogation, he is taken to a room with the Doctor and Cass and Oshia goes to fetch some guards.
The Doctor senses from his key that the TARDIS is not on the planet and scans the area with his sonic screwdriver, determining that they have been thrown a year back in time. He tells Oshia that it was the Daleks who caused the Battle TARDIS to explode, wiping themselves from existence and changing the history of the planet, and that the Dalek ship must be on its way today; the Daleks will exterminate everybody on the planet, build their factory and cause the explosion, creating an endless loop.
