The story of a deadly curse that afflicted an Irish family for a hundred years.
"I tell you your mine will be in ruins and your home destroyed and your children forgotten... but this hill will be standing still to confound you." So curses Morty Donovan when Copper John Brodrick builds his mine at Hungry Hill.

For generations the feud between the families has simmered, always threatening to break into violence....
