2. A Date with Destiny

Someone has sent literal Death after Doom. She can only outrun it for 24 hours. Unless she can find the Doctor...

Tick... Tock...

As Doom's final hours come into sharp focus, she'll need to do whatever's necessary to complete her missions, find the Doctor, and escape what increasingly seems like the inevitable. But how best to find the person who can save Doom's life? Will the Doctor's friends be her salvation? Or perhaps the Doctor's enemies will be the route to survival?

Doom is about to travel across thousands of years of time, and light years of space in search of her last, best hope. But even if she finds the Doctor, will a person who is all about saving lives help a person whose only job is to take them?

Doom's day is almost over. Time is running out. This could be the end.

4. The Crowd by Lizzie Hopley
