Arthur Hesketh has spent his working life following railway lines, timetables and rules. But on one final assignment before retirement, he is sent on a special working to the abandoned Bellwether glassworks.
What waits there is not part of any timetable.

As the journey bends around memory, regret and the life he might have lived, Arthur is forced to confront something far more dangerous than the impossible: the temptation to step away from the life that is still his.

Special Working is a haunting companion story to Bellwether, exploring grief, love, memory and the strange places that open when the past refuses to stay behind.
