The Tin of Secrets

Old Arthur is a cleaner at Sydney’s Central Railway Station. One of those invisible people who carries out the thankless jobs that make our lives that little bit easier. You know, keeping public spaces clean, replacing our toilet paper rolls and removing smudges from the restroom ceramic and mirrors. He keeps to himself and no one can remember the last time he had a sickie. In fact no one knows much about Arthur at all and that’s just the way he likes it. But that’s about to change when his dark past finally catches up with him.
