(A14) When Calls the Heart

The story of young schoolteacher Elizabeth Thatcher, who has just arrived in Coal Valley, a 19th-century coal mining town in the Western Frontier, that is worlds apart from the wealthy, high-society life where she grew up. Elizabeth arrives in the aftermath of a mine explosion that claimed the lives of most of Coal Valley's men, leaving behind their widows, including kind-hearted Abigail Stanton, who becomes friends with Mountie Bill Avery, a forensic specialist who has been called to the town to help investigate the mining explosion.
