Synopsis
A taut, gritty tale about two boys who live on a run-down housing estate near a railway line. When you live life on the line, it doesn't take much to come off the rails. Simon and Darren look out for each other - always have done. Especially these last few years, since Darren's dad died and his mum took up with Milo. Since Si's kid brother got so ill. Since girls, drugs and gangs became a part of life, and messing about on the railway line has turned into more than just playing stupid games. But sometimes even your best mate can't protect you from what life has in store further down the tracks...

About the Author
David Skipper was born in 1962 and grew up on a housing estate in the heart of industrial Teesside. He says of Life on the Line, "I grew up around a railway and so a lot of the events and places in the book are real, including Twenty One Arches and Suicide Leap, although unfortunately the Arches have now been demolished because they were considered a danger to adventurous children. I still live close to the line and can hear the sound of the trains in the night." David's other titles for Walker include Barnstormers, and Quest. He lives in Cleveland, where, since leaving school, he has worked as a laboratory technician.
