For thirty years, Amelia Hayes has believed that her father's disappearance was a mystery without an answer.Then she finds his train ticket.Perfectly preserved and dated October 14, 1994, the ticket bears the name of a railway that does not exist on any map: The Northern Ghost Line-Termination Point.Amelia is an engineer and restorer who trusts machines because machines obey rules. People disappear, memories change, and grief lies. But steel, gears, and engines always leave evidence.So she follows the coordinates printed on the impossible ticket into the frozen wilderness of the far North.There, beyond the last roads and outside the reach of GPS, Amelia discovers an abandoned platform surrounded by snow and silence.
