On a chilly November night in 1943, railroad station agent John McKinsey is inundated with strange passengers. Passengers with tickets for a train that shouldn’t exist.

“Funny thing about the hands,” I said, straddling a barstool. “You didn’t tell me they’d be reaching out of the bog.”

“No. No one mentioned them. It’s all right, though. They were friendly enough.”
