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. Calling herself Helen Chenka, she leaves a message for the Doctor and Liv 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.
