THE CASTLEREAGH LINE is an Australian radio serial and series of 7 Novels, written by the late Ross Napier. The radio serial ran for 910 episodes and was aired on over 100 stations nationally and internationally, more than any Australian radio serial ever. The program was so popular that factories downed tools to enable the staff to listen to it.
THE STORY: The Castlereagh Line is the saga of a ruthless man with a single-minded determination, and of the woman he deserted. Lottie Long escapes torture and murder in Northern Queensland and meets Jack Seager in the bar where she is working in Cloncurry. Along with Mat Gore, they establish The Castlereagh Line in 1880 – a coach line with the benefit of a mail contract which covers northern New South Wales. Betrayed by Jack, Lottie uses his empire to build her own and creates a new life for herself. Murder, rape, arson, robbery – The Castlereagh Line is full of action and intrigue.
