Summary:
On December 6, 1917, two ships collided near the waterfront of the Halifax, Nova Scotia Harbour. One was carrying tons of munitions. On impact, a giant explosion occurred, which was the world's worst disaster at that time, killing and injuring thousands. Can Jennie and her family rise up from the tragedy and trauma to ultimate triumph? This compelling and inspiring novel gives fresh insight into what the people of Halifax faced on that fateful day that would claim the lives of over 1000 people and leave nearly 10,000 injured.
Janet
