Timelord's story gets a Cornish twist

The country's best loved time lord, is about to turn up in a Cornish seaside village.

A brand new novella about the further adventures of Doctor Who has been written by an author from Cornwall.

The action takes place in a village which bears a striking resemblance to St. Agnes.

The book, called Rip Tide, is written by Louise Cooper, who lives in the village.

The story finds the Doctor posing as a tourist in a coastal village with the tardis hidden in a holiday cottage.

His mission is to find a lost alien, disguised as human and take it home.

As well as the usual Doctor Who cast, the book contains a few characters from Cornwall's landscape, including the crew of the local lifeboat.

The book is due to published at the end of February.
