A short story set in the remote town of Brooke's Vale and its small airstrip. When Jim heads home after losing the plane he'd set his heart on, he's expecting to spend the remains of his leave getting drunk. The flying club, and his brother, have other ideas.
Arrival is about the arrival of one of Brooke's Vale's more unusual residents, and set several years before Fire Season. Originally it was published one line per day over Twitter, and is available here as bonus content.
