Publisher's summary
When the Doctor and friends hunt down time anomalies in 2020s Soho, Helen steps into the past and meets the brother she thought she’d lost forever.
But there are Weeping Angels in London - and one of the stone assassins wants something from the Doctor and Liv...
Plot
The Doctor, Liv and Helen arrive in Soho around 2025 in search of a temporal weak spot. Helen, with the Doctor's spare sonic screwdriver, tracks the weak spot to a record shop where she meets Jase Harper and is given some order forms to give to Al. The sonic screwdriver leads her to a booth which she is unable to escape due to a containment field; a Weeping Angel sends her back to 1963 and the Doctor detects the displacement with his own screwdriver.
Helen meets her brother, Albie, who was disowned by their father and whose whereabouts she was unaware of, and introduces herself as "Helen Chenka" to avoid affecting the timeline. She leaves a message for the Doctor and Liv on a notice board, complete with a drawing of the TARDIS, and goes to stay with Albie. In St James's Park, a Weeping Angel chases them and they cause it to sink beneath the ice where it is trapped by its own reflection. Helen goes back onto the ice to pick up the sonic screwdriver, but Albie talks her out of risking her life and they head to the boarding house, where Helen gives Mrs Denny her silver necklace as a deposit for a room.
The Doctor and Liv find Helen's note at the record shop and go to speak with the elderly Mrs Denny, who claims not to know Helen or Albie but is wearing Helen's necklace, which Liv bought for her from Arturodon. Upon going back into the house, Mrs Denny is sent back in time by an Angel. The Doctor and Liv enter and encounter the Angel, taking Helen's necklace back from it, and return to the TARDIS where they use the telepathic circuits to find Helen.
In Albie's room, Helen asks about his partner, Bailey, and, after she shows that she accepts his sexuality, he takes her to meet him at band practice. Later, Bailey goes to the record shop and sees the Weeping Angel; Jack Harper tells him how he controlled it using Helen's screwdriver and gives him a letter to give to Jack's ancestor, informing him of where the Angel can be found. The Angel sends Bailey back in time and Jack promises it more food if it behaves. At the boarding house, Helen learns that Mrs Denny has found Albie and Bailey's love letters and contacted the police.
