After letting an energy company begin fracking near her farm in Amity, Pennsylvania, Stacey Haney's animals began to die and her children came down with mysterious illnesses. Stonewalled by the company, Haney joined with neighbors and a husband-and-wife legal team to find out what was really happening to their water and air. Against local opposition, Haney and her allies pursued their case in court and began to expose the damage being done to the land her family had lived on for centuries. Eliza Griswold's Pulitzer Prize winning account reveals what happens when an imperiled town faces a crisis of values, and a family wagers everything on an improbable quest for justice.
