520 |a "1987: Thirteen-year-old Jade Armbruster lives with her parents and older sister on the family's derelict vintage oil farm - a formerly stately property built by her ancestor, Clyde. As her parents fight about whether to sell their failing business, Jade struggles to avoid her best-friend-turned-nemesis and vies for the attention of an anigmatic farmer boy. Meanwhile, the oil swirling beneath her home bubbles with memories and messages about her family's troubling history on this land. 1862: Clyde Armbruster catches his big break, striking Lambton Country's first gusher. The discovery brings wealth and opportunity to him and his wife, Lise, but his daily proximity to oil leaves him infertile, with alarming, otherworldly visions. Clyde and Lise develop an alliance with their eccentric and wealthy neighbours - a relationship that promises even more success until a rift between the two families locks them into a bitter rivalry that lasts generations. As the narratives coalesce, family secrets and deceits are slowly unveiled, and the slick spectre of oil seeps off the page, revealing a landscape smeared and stained yet persistently alive."--Front flap of jacket.
