An Eighth Doctor novel featuring Fitz and Anji. The Unnoticed are a race bound to keep themselves isolated from all history or face a complete collapse from existence. The Book of the Still is a lifeline for stranded time travellers - write your location, sign your name and be instantly rescued.

But she's the one that's stolen Fitz. Anji, alone on a doomed planet, tries to find evidence of a race that have never had the decency to exist and doesn't know where anybody is. Embrolled in the deadly chase, the Doctor's starting to worry about how many people he can keep alive along the way. show lessTags

I thought this was a rather good Eighth Doctor adventure, with Team Tardis getting caught up in a complex struggle between time travellers seeking the eponymous artefact, the Doctor, Fitz and Anji each being subjected to separate but entertainingly appropriate adventures. Apparently this was a point when the series was winding down, but there seems to have been a bit of an uptick in quality.
