Daisy on the Outer Line

ebook

Life, Death and Time Travel on the Glasgow Subway...

After selfish student Daisy makes a scene at her stepdad's funeral, she drunkenly falls asleep on the Glasgow subway and wakes to find she has travelled back in time. And to make matters worse, she's in someone else's body.

To make amends for her behaviour, she must save a life—but she doesn't know who, how, or where to begin. She'll have to find out fast if she wants to make it back to her old life and avoid being trapped in the wrong timeline forever.

This novel was awarded one of the first Scots Language Publication Grants funded by the Scottish Government and administered by the Scottish Book Trust.

"Life isnae a fulm. It's barely even a story. Thur's nae such hing as gid guys and bad guys, thur's jist... guys. Cause sometimes folk dae nice hings, really lovely hings, and then a minute later they dae horrible, break yer heart hings. But that widnae be easy tae digest over ninety minutes while ye munch yer popcorn and sook yer Tango Ice Blast.

So we pretend thur's gid guys and bad guys and sort folk intae wan category or the other. We don't like tae believe thur's a giant chasm in the middle whaur everybody really sits."

'A clever, funny, dark and yet heart-warming story of time travel and redemption, one tube stop at a time. A truly unforgettable read.' SARAH BROADLEY, MY BOOK CORNER

'What a journey. I was hooked. I had to stay on board. This book is by turns funny, poignant, outrageous & compelling as Daisy journeys inside & alongside herself. Highly recommended. Clear space on the shelf @Sayers33 ... surely some awards for this! @cranachanbooks' MIKE NICHOLSON, WRITER
