2000s: A man goes missing from a moving train
Leo is just trying to catch his train back home to the village of Malacstone in North East England. But there’s disorder at the station, and when a loud young man heading for London boards the train accidentally, a usually easy journey descends into darkness and chaos. The train soon breaks down in the middle of nowhere, and as night falls, something…or someone steps out of the distance. Is it a man or something far more sinister?
When one of the passengers goes missing, Leo fears that a folkloric tale whispered to him in childhood might be the culprit.
Northumberland
Malacstone is fictional as are most of the places mentioned in the story. The train line in question however is the one across Northumberland national park.
Take the train from Hexham and along the line to Brampton and this will give you the feels of this journey in the book!
Just hope that no-one leaves the train unexpectedly or you find a mobile phone.
