A near-death mining accident triggers J.B. Smith's quest for the impossible - IMMORTALITY. "Give me wealth, power, and offspring. I'll destroy anyone challenging my empire." Impassioned union activist Stash Taluski protests: "We are children of the earth's black bowels, Mr. Smith. You must look out for your brothers." "Never!" Sally Pursells loves both men. She rises from deepest poverty to become J.B.'s closest advisor. J.B. provides Sally security, worldly comforts; Stash, raw-flesh desires. Sally bonds with their families. She's as a mother to their children. The relationships play out midst sly corporate boardroom bloodletting and brutal Appalachian coalfield riots. Can justice-seeking Sally achieve her impossible - reconciling two men so alike yet so different? For the sake of her two families, she must.
