"In an isolated silver mining town in Idaho in the 1970s, almost everyone in town lost someone in the disastrous fire. Jordan is a young widow with twin children; David, a college student trying to make a life for himself in another town; Lionel, a lifelong hard-rock miner. It's a tough, hard-working, hard-drinking town, but as they struggle to come to terms with the loss nobody's tough enough to get through this undamaged."--Provided by publisher.
