The novel “The Clockwise Man” by Justin Richards was published for the first time in 2005.

The Ninth Doctor and Rose Tyler arrive in London in 1924, to visit the British Empire Exhibition. They just got out of the Tardis when they see a man in trouble due to an aggression and rush to help him. The man works for Sir George Harding and the three of them go to his residence, where the Doctor and Rose meet various people, including Anna, the wife of Sir George, and her son, Freddie.

Soon, the Doctor and Rose discover that Sir George’s friends are involved in a plan that aims to restore the monarchy in Russia. This strange conspiracy involves a woman who always wears a mask and Repple, who claims he’s the legitimate ruler of Dastaria, deposed just like the Tsar, but there are too many strange things about them.
