Deadly Reunion was the sixty-second novel in the BBC Past Doctor Adventures series. It was written by Terrance Dicks and Barry Letts, released 3 November 2003 and featured the Third Doctor and Jo Grant.

It also featured all the "UNIT family" characters of Alistair Gordon Lethbridge-Stewart, Mike Yates and John Benton. The Master also appeared, setting this story firmly in the early period of the Doctor's exile on Earth. This novel significantly expanded on Lethbridge-Stewart's early life and was written by two writers who worked on Doctor Who during the period in which this novel is set.
