Doctor Who: Salt of the Earth by Trudi Canavan
5.0
Trudi Canavan is the fourth author in the Time Trips series, bringing Doctor number three (Jon Pertwee) and his companion Jo Grant back for this particular adventure.
The Doctor promised Jo a trip to the beach, but she didn't expect a salt lake in Australia. The year is 2028 and folks in the area have been going missing for some time. Sunny believes it's the "bad salt" but until the Doctor arrives no one really listens to her concerns. It helps that the Doctor and Jo both witness a strange statue of a man crumbling in the wind shortly after their arrival.
This one might just be my favorite so far. I'm not sure exactly why - the setting, the premise, the characters... I've never actually seen Jon Pertwee's Doctor but the interplay between him and Jo here was a lot of fun.
