Summarized Plot[]
Doctor Who: An American Companion starts off focusing on new companion character, Alyssa Madison Davies, who in the year 2005 and aged 16 encounters the Doctor having crash landed near her gated residential community in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Doctor at this time is in his tenth regeneration. During their time together, the Doctor parts ways with Alyssa twice, returning at different years later on in her life, to continue their travels. He returns in 2008 when she is a college student at 19 years old and then again in 2014 when she is 25 and a police officer.
During Alyssa's travels with the Doctor she becomes notable in her affiliations with a U.S. government black project which monitors, researches and defends the Earth from extraterrestrial threats, gaining her technological advantages against enemies encountered by her and the Doctor. Despite disagreements between Alyssa and the Doctor frequently regarding use of force against alien threats to the Earth, the Doctor takes suspicious note that there is something about Alyssa and her role in the universe, which he views as important and maintains their friendship.
