Book description
On a lonely stretch of Welsh coastline a fisherman is killed by a
hideous creature from beneath the waves. When the Doctor and Rose
arrive, they discover a village where the children are plagued by
nightmares, and the nights are ruled by monsters. The villagers
suspect that ancient industrialist Nathanial Morton is to blame, but
the Doctor has suspicions of his own.
Who are the ancient figures that sleep in the old priory? What are
the monsters that prowl the woods after sunset? What is the light that
glows in the disused lighthouse on Black Island? As the children's
nightmares get worse, The Doctor and Rose discover an alien plot to
resurrect an ancient evil...
Featuring the Doctor and Rose as played by David Tennant and
Billie Piper in the hit series from BBC Television.
