Publisher's summary

5.1 Meanwhile, Elsewhere by Tim Foley
The Doctor and Alex arrive on a tropical beach where something's amiss.
Meanwhile, elsewhere... a desperate pilot runs for his life.

5.2 Vespertine by Lou Morgan
It's Cass's first trip in the TARDIS, and the Doctor is determined to make it one to remember. But when they arrive at a research base that shouldn't exist, built above a missing explorer's ship that should never have been found, it seems their visit's going to be memorable for all the wrong reasons.
Because deep beneath the ice, there's more than just a long-lost ship waiting for them...
5.3 Previously, Next Time by James Moran
The Doctor, Cass and Alex land to find out what's causing temporal anomalies with the TARDIS, and come across an uninhabited planet, a mysterious factory, and a weapon so dangerous, it could destroy the Universe. But things go catastrophically wrong...

Notes
- This cover was created by Rafe Wallbank[1], with the Dalek renders provided by James Johnson[2].
- As with previous work, Johnson again released a closer look at the Dalek design featured on the cover, noting its identical appearance to the Big Finish website exclusive Dalek Scientist action figure with silver dome, slats and sense globes, released by Character Options in 2019. The action figure in question is itself based upon the cover art for the War Doctor audio release A Thing of Guile.
- The syringe attachment featured on the cover bares a resemblance to the attachment used by Dalek Jast in the television story Daleks in Manhattan.
- The stories were recorded between 5-9 September 2022 at the Soundhouse and remotely.
