The Long Slog Back

On a dark lonely night, a young lad, having missed his taxi, walks home after a night out with his mate. During the long slog back to Tremwell from Durham he encounters a girl in a pink dress in very unusual circumstances. However, after an awkward introduction the two hit it off and decide on trekking back together.

Things are going well for the young lad but there is something odd about the girl that he can’t quite put his finger on. However, with a belly full of beer and his bonny companion to keep him company he puts all other thoughts from his mind. That is until he realises what is actually wrong with her. The question he has to ask himself now is what is he holding hands with, and can he keep his nerve as the pair stroll along hand in hand.

This is just the start of the mystery.
