Description
When 12-year-old John Nicol starts working at the Forth Bridge construction site, he faces the dangers of heights and the pressure of supporting his family after his father's departure. Four boys have already fallen from the bridge, heightening John's fear. To cope, he finds solace in the local Carnegie library, his friend Cora, and his pet squirrel Rusty. However, when he joins Cain Murdoch's Rivet Gang, John must summon the courage to confront his fears and stand up to his cruel boss. This story blends historical facts with fiction, focusing on one boy's contribution to building Scotland's iconic Forth Bridge.
