Description: Dust jacket design by Bill English. The publisher's blurb reads: ''Those who had lost their money in Stuart Campbell's Rocky Mountain Oil Exploration Company were sure old Campbell was a swindler. At Come Lucky, the ghost town just under the Kingdom, he was particularly hated, but there were some old-timers in Calgary who believed in his dream. Campbell's grandson, Bruce Wetheral, wasn't sure. As sole heir to the Kingdom he was ready enough to fight Trevedian and the others who wanted to dam the valley. But only when the sullenness of the Come Lucky villagers flamed into open hostility -- only when he found out how easily murder could be made to look like an accident -- did he really become determined to prove old Campbell right. An exciting novel of man against man, and man against nature, filled with the breath-taking grandeur of the Canadian Rockies and avalanching along to a nerve-jangling climax.''
