Constable McFarlan has a problem-his town's on fire. A Kentucky
mining community nestled in the hollows of the Appalachian
Mountains, Shard, was the picture of Small Town America. But in
1989 The Fire changed everything. A mysterious accident set the
coal seam ablaze and Shard began a slow death burn. The smolder
spread beneath the streets, fiery sinkholes swallowed entire houses
and the air turned sulfurous. Twenty years later, only Will
Two-Bears McFarlan and a few eccentric hold-outs remain to walk
Shard's cracked boulevards and fill its once proud Victorians. But
they are not alone. The cause of The Fire has awakened. Above
ground, a corporate mining concern and its high-powered law firm
will scheme to strip away the last vestiges of humanity from Shard.
Below, ancient forces will battle for dominion over the town and
ultimately the world. Caught in the middle are the people of Shard.
Some will fight. Some will die. All will walk into the light.
