During the early hours of April 29, 1903, the top of Turtle Mountain come crashing down, sealing the mine entrance, burying part of the town of Frank, Alberta, and taking out the CPR rail lines, shortly before the Spokane Flyer was due to come through.
13 year-old Natalie Vaughan rushes to help in the rescue efforts. Although, her widowed mother has warned her to expect the worst, Natalie is determined to search for her missing friends and their families, and to comfort those who have lost loved ones both in town and in the mine. Though Natalie has struggled all her life to the knowledge that she is a disappointment to her mother’s family, she shows, by her courage, that she is a fighter.
