The Lost Boy was a novelisation based on the 2007 TV story The Lost Boy. With its release, coinciding with the release of Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane? on the same day, all episodes of the first series of The Sarah Jane Adventures were adapted. 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 it finishing.

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. But something doesn't seem right. With the help of her friends, Maria, Clyde and Alan, Sarah Jane uncovers a sinister alien plot and a shocking truth about a loyal "friend"...
