Phin Chase and his mother live in Pennsylvania coal country. By 1875, the mine owners have crushed the unions, and the Molly McGuires, a secret society of Irishmen, are killing supervisors. After witnessing one such murder, Phin flees, knowing he will be framed. Haas creates a vivid sense of place and a gripping suspense story. An author's note is appended. Bib.
