How can it work? How can fledgling stationmaster, Horace Jay, journey from erotic fantasist to devoted husband in the face of such distraction? Endangered by the charms of a scheming music hall dancer and burdened daily by the wiles and whims of arrogant aristocrats, devious local peasants and artful railway employees, how can this troubled bachelor gain the upper hand and find time to woo the woman he really loves, at the same time keeping his job by concealing from the company his fear of the electric telegraph? Horace’s struggle can lead only to rapture or ruin.
A quirky romance set in Victorian England, told with authenticity and humour.
