Publisher's summary
Young Amelia Pond is used to getting into trouble. After another fight at school, she is sent back to counselling. But her new therapist is rather unconventional...

Because is also in trouble. Stuck on Earth, she’s targeted one of the Doctor’s best friends to get his attention - but her timing’s off. Amy’s TARDIS encounters lie years in her past and future, but there’s something strange in her garden now. As Missy sets her sights on young Pond, the fairies may be her only hope!

Plot
Amelia is sent to the headmistress's office after fighting back against Fran, a bully, and Sharon has her partner Conor take her home at the end of the day. Confined to her room, she listens to music until she hears strange sounds in the garden and sneaks out to a telephone box to invite her friend Laura to spend time with her in Leadworth. Laura's mother has heard about Amelia fighting Fran, however, so Amelia goes to the carnival on her own and is told by a fortune teller that she should not continue to wait for the person she met as a child.

Sharon searches for Amelia when she fails to answer her mobile phone and goes to the police to report her as missing. She arranges for Amelia to return to counselling but, instead of Dr David Millner, Amelia's new therapist is Missy, using Millner's name. Missy asks her about the Raggedy Man and whether he has returned for her, confirming that she is too early in Amelia's timeline to make contact with him, and tells her to investigate the strange occurrence in her garden to "get things moving" and stop waiting. Whilst putting the washing to dry in the garden, Amelia encounters fairies and barricades herself in her bedroom, attempting to call Sharon and Conor before the fairies leave her alone. She then realises that she recognises them from Into the Magic Forest.

''Running from Rukith assassins after killing the prince of Rukundra Prime, Missy arrives in Leadworth using a faulty vortex manipulator and kills the assassin leader and Corporal Rux. She renames the third assassin Derek and, realising where she is, employs him to help her get to the Doctor by killing Amelia. However, she is unable to get into Amelia's house due to a dark matter force field which Derek is able to pass through, but he is killed by the fairies. She then decides that she will have to take the place of Dr Millner, whom she hears Conor mention to Amelia.''
