Publisher's summary
Old Time Agents never die - they just lose their memories. Back on Earth after her involvement in the Time War, Ace is having trouble fitting in - and coincidence seems to be following her...
Plot
Back in London with no memory of her adventures with the Doctor or living on Gallifrey, Ace flat sits for a friend and regularly chats with a neighbour. One day, she hangs around the post boxes waiting for the neighbour and, when she arrives, she tells her about the strange day she has had.
Ace takes the Tube to Leicester Square and, when the train stops at Covent Garden, she is bumped into by a man who remembers her from school but whom she fails to recall. She purchases the next book in a series she is reading from a bookshop on Charing Cross Road before going to the National Portrait Gallery where she is approached by another man. Like her, he finds the statue of Queen Victoria and Price Albert tacky and, as they laugh about it, he recognises her as the girl who blew up the art room at Perivale High. She makes her excuses and leaves.
