Takes readers back to the scene of the worst landslide in North America's history - Frank, Alberta (then the Northwest Territories). It was there, in 1901, in the shadow of Turtle Mountain, that miners poured in to begin digging out coal. Keeley O'Brian and her widowed father are among the hundreds who hoped to carve out a future from this enterprise.
