Summer Falls

Summer Falls was a book with at least eleven chapters, written by Amelia Pond using her married name, Amelia Williams. It was read by Clara Oswald and Artie Maitland, one of the children she babysat. Clara thought that Chapter 11 would make Artie cry. (TV: The Bells of Saint John)

Written in 1954, Summer Falls is set in the seaside village of Watchcombe, where young Kate is determined to make the most of her last week of summer holiday. But when she discovers a mysterious painting entitled ‘The Lord of Winter’ in a charity shop, it leads her on an adventure she never could have planned.

Kate soon realises the old seacape, painted long ago by an eccentric local artist, is actually a puzzle. And with the help of some bizarre new acquaintances – including a museum curator's magical cat, a miserable neighbour, and a lonely boy – she plans on solving it.

And then, one morning Kate wakes up to a world changed forever. For the Lord of Winter is coming – and Kate has a very important decision to make. “When summer falls, the Lord of Winter will arise...”
