When Dublin creative director RóisÃn Kelly flames out on a viral pitch day, she escapes to County Kerry to deal with the inheritance she never wanted: her granddad's disused signal box on the Clonree Heritage Railway. She plans to sell and run-until she learns the clause attached to the deed: keep the box operational for one summer of public running days, or the line loses a crucial grant.
Enter Jamie Donnelly, the railway's meticulous operations manager-steady hands, sharp rules, a soft heart he pretends is just procedure. Forced into the same rota, the same kettle, and one cramped room of brass levers and bell codes, their sparring turns into something slower, warmer, and far more dangerous than either of them planned.
But a smooth developer-backed greenway campaign is gathering speed, and one safety scare could derail everything. To save the railway-and choose each other-RóisÃn and Jamie must prove that heritage and modern access can coexist... and that some signals are worth reading with your whole heart.
