Synopsis
For twelve-year-old Jem, the coming of the railways was the most spectacular thing he had ever seen. But it meant that the old way of life was threatened, and many people didn't want things to change. So, as the gangs of navvies carved out the railway lines across the countryside, the tension
grew between the villagers and the gangs until it flared into violence. And Jem and his sister, Kate, were caught in the middle.
This first novel by award-winning author, Gillian Cross, is new in trade paperback.
