The Dead Star was the fourth release in The Audio Novels. It was written by Kate Orman and featured the Second Doctor, Ben Jackson and Polly Wright.

Summary

It's 1968, and the Earth has one month to live.

The Doctor, Ben, and Polly race to escape a frightening lifeless London. But as the city folds in on itself, it is a warning of a far greater danger. Someone has misused terrifyingly advanced technology to make Earth the target of a primordial black hole - a tiny, invisible world-killer. Struggling to avert the catastrophe, the Doctor must send his companions on dangerous undercover missions.

Can the Doctor and his friends prevent the planet Earth from being erased from space and time?
