You may be looking for the in-universe version.

Summer Falls was an e-book released to coincide with TV: The Bells of Saint John. It was based on Summer Falls, an in-universe book featured in the episode that was meant to be written by Amelia Williams.

Publisher's summary

"When summer falls, the Lord of Winter will arise..."

In the seaside village of Watchcombe, young Kate is determined to make the most of her last week of summer holiday. But when she discovers a mysterious painting entitled 'The Lord of Winter' in a charity shop, it leads her on an adventure she never could have planned. Kate soon realises the old seascape, painted long ago by an eccentric local artist, is actually a puzzle. And with the help of some bizarre new acquaintances - including a museum curator's magical cat, a miserable neighbour, and a lonely boy - she plans on solving it.

And then, one morning Kate wakes up to a world changed forever. For the Lord of Winter is coming - and Kate has a very important decision to make.

Characters

References

  • The Curator, a Doctor-like character, tells Kate, "Magic is cool," echoing one of the Eleventh Doctor's catchphrases.
  • The Curator tells Kate that the Lord of Winter's shield brought him back to life by remembering him. Similarly, the Doctor told Amy that if something can be remembered, it can come back.

Notes

  • Amazon UK and Amazon US market this as a story written by the fictional character Amelia Williams.
  • The inside cover states it's a first edition printed in 1954. As such, the fact it is supposedly written by a woman from the future becomes evident with the use of phrases such as "cool" which were not in wide use in 1954, and also subtle references to technology such as digital cameras.
  • Summer Falls was released in a printed edition in a collection that included The Angel's Kiss and Devil in the Smoke called Summer Falls and Other Stories.

Continuity

  • At the end of The Day of the Doctor, the Eleventh Doctor (portrayed by Matt Smith) opined to himself that he could retire and become the curator of the secret art gallery in which was kept artwork considered too dangerous for the public eye. He was told "I really think you might", by a character portrayed by Tom Baker. This character referred to himself only as 'a humble Curator', but is also thouhtt to be a future incarnation of The Doctor who reassumed the form of his [[Fourth Doctor|Fourth Incarnation]].
