On a fog-bound winter night, five men from the Clearwater, Larkspur, and Delamere Mysteries find themselves stranded in a rural railway station, awaiting a special train bound for Larkspur Hall and Clearwater’s annual Christmas Ball.
To pass the long hours, they share candid, colourful, and often amusing tales from their pasts while the attentive stationmaster listens in. Yet the youngest among the group, a stranger, grows increasingly uneasy. He bears a secret and is the subject of mysterious messages that arrive throughout the night. Who is he, and why has he been invited to Larkspur Hall? Only by unravelling their stories can the group piece together the truth.
‘1893’ is the second collection of Clearwater Tales and can be enjoyed as a short, standalone novella. You don’t need to have read the Clearwater, Larkspur, or Delamere series, but returning readers may find extra delight in recognising familiar faces and histories.
