Summary
“I’m her husband.”
They returned her expectant stare blankly. River watched them with her hip propped on the console, clearly amused, letting a few awkward seconds pass before supplying helpfully, “Wife.”
“Wife! That’s the one.” The Doctor squeezed her eyes shut, snapping her finger. “Argh. I’ll get it the first time one day.”
“Hang on a sec,” Graham spluttered. “You’re married?! When did this happen?”
“Oh, roughly a thousand years ago.”
“Or a couple of centuries,” River countered.
The Doctor threw her a grin. “Or at the beginning and the end of the universe.”
“Or all of the above.”The Doctor enlists the help of a criminal to retrieve three stolen relics, and the fam gets their first introduction to River Song.

Summary
River thought of the look the Doctor had given her four days earlier, how sad he had been when he’d seen her with her parents. As much as she wanted to travel, as much as she wanted to throw him onto the closest horizontal surface and sate the itchy, crawly desire that had been getting worse, her gut knew the truth. Something had happened to either her or her parents, and her time with them was running out. She needed to stay.

Summary
The consequences of merzost are unpredictable. In the ruins of a chapel that nearly killed them both, Alina took more than she expected: centuries upon centuries of his memory. The Darkling may not remember the Fold, but that doesn’t mean he can’t help her destroy it—if she’s willing to press her advantage.
Aleksander has lived for 100 years and never heard of this so-called saint, this Sankta Alina. There’s something off about it, something he can’t quite recall. He’s never put his trust in saints and he does not intend to start now.
But the better they get to know each other, the more complicated it becomes.

Summary
Alina Starkov was born afraid of the dark, with strange illnesses and terrifying spells she could never explain. Her face is the face of the enemy, and even with her unusual skills, hiding is the only safe option.
But when she is discovered as a fabled Sun Summoner, a mythical Grisha so rare that they’ve been seen before, Alina’s carefully constructed world is shattered.
And when the formidable Darkling, General Kirigan continues to take an interest in her for reasons she doesn’t understand, Alina must make a choice between choosing to follow the rules that have kept her safe all her life, or risk her freedom and her heart to find out who she really is.
After all, when there's blood in the water, there are no safe places to hide.
