As the dead crew haunt loved ones all over London, the Doctor and Rose are drawn into a chilling mystery. What sank the ship, and why?

"I listened to the audiobook which already adds an extra star to my review :P David Tennant gave a great performance - I particulary liked his Mickey. The story itself is maybe not as memorable as The Stone Rose but still fun. I really liked the way Rose and the Doctor's relationship was portrayed."

Quotes

  • “A dark, brooding novel that plays on some very instinctive human fears, both physical and emotional. Drowning. Jealousy. Love. Grief. It’s a novel that is firmly grounded in the world of the new series.”

    " Just not my style really! Maybe I'm a bit old to be reading this kind of book. Also found it a little hard to follow as it was dialogue and action-heavy - very like a screenplay. I can imagine it would work well as an audio book, though. "

    " Now, this is more to my liking. A pure adventure with a pinch of horror. As a bonus, we get an interesting look at Rose's and Mickey's relationship. Also, there is a bunch of secondary characters we actually cared for. And of course, Jackie in her most formidable! "
