'The Death and Life of River Song': 'War Widow': 2-'Bad Timing' by Matt Fitton

River knows this Doctor's time is almost over. She can’t save him, but he wants to save her.

Trying to escape the Time War, they end up deeper inside it, on a Time Lord mission threatening the fabric of causality. But the Daleks are to blame for the Doctor's fate - and River will make them pay.
