Touched by an Angel was the forty-sixth book in the BBC New Series Adventures line.
Publisher's summary
"The past is like a foreign country. Nice to visit, but you really wouldn’t want to live there."
In 2003, Rebecca Whitaker died in a road accident. Her husband Mark is still grieving. He receives a battered envelope, posted eight years ago, containing a set of instructions with a simple message: "You can save her."
As Mark is given the chance to save Rebecca, it’s up to the Doctor, Amy and Rory to save the whole world. Because this time the Weeping Angels are using history itself as a weapon.
