"Based on the true story of an earthquake that shook Newfoundland's Burin Peninsula, [this book] tells the tale of this forgotten disaster from the point of view of a young girl whose life is turned upside down. November 18th, 1929. In her small village in Newfoundland, Celia is setting the table for her 13th birthday celebration when the house starts to shake. It's an earthquake, rumbling under the Atlantic Ocean. A few hours later, the sea water disappears from the harbor, only to rush back in a wave almost 30 feet high, destroying nearly everything in its path."--Provided by publisher.
