Over the Line
Work detail
With each passing month, the themes in Over The Line become more relevant. - Sean Ingle, The Guardian. Published in February 2015, Over The Line anticipated the doping crisis in sport and exposed the over-lapping epidemic of steroid abuse for appearance-enhancing body-building. A gritty and poignant thriller, it s a story of suspicion, denial and betrayal set in and around the drug scene in a south Wales gym. It s the eve of Rio, and Britain s Olympic poster girl, Megan Tomos, seems destined for a gold medal. But detectives investigating the steroid-fuelled death of her childhood friend, Matt, have other priorities and want to find out what she knows. In panic and riddled with angst, Megan disappears, only to resurface arm-in-arm with Will, an old boyfriend who was banned from rugby after failing a drugs test. Her coach, Liam, is dumbfounded and doesn t know what to think. He wants to trust her but has to wrestle with his doubts under growing pressure from the police and media. As layers of Megan s past are peeled away, she has to face up to some big mistakes
