What if every omen you ignored brought the horror one heartbeat closer? The Signal-Man distills Victorian fear of the unstoppable machine age into a single, unforgettable encounter between a curious traveler and the tortured watchman of a remote rail line. Charles Dickens-himself a survivor of the 1865 Staplehurst rail crash-pours personal dread into a story that still echoes wherever wheels scream in the dark. What You'll Explore in This Modern Edition: * Premonition vs. Reason - Can logic survive when the supernatural foretells death? * Isolation on the Job - A portrait of industrial loneliness that feels eerily contemporary. * Fate's Iron Rails - The unstoppable march of technology-and the human cost left in its wake. * Restored, Accessible Text - Faithful to Dickens's voice yet refreshed for today's reader. A perfect evening read for fans of The Woman in Black, Ghost Stories of an Antiquary, and anyone who glances at a railway signal and wonders what secrets it keeps.
