King Coal Book 1 - The Domain of King Coal; Sections 1-2

In which a young man, eager and unversed in the ways of the coal-mining world, arrives at a mountain town seeking work and is met not with welcome but suspicion and rejection at the gates of a private mining company. Despite his hopeful heart and youthful song, he finds himself bruised, robbed, and imprisoned, only to learn that the camp’s ruthless guards guard not just the property but the secrets within.
