Bad Ground

Deep in the earth, brilliant clusters of quartz crystals lie hidden. Such treasures can only be found in the fractured, unstable, and dangerous hard-rock miners call "bad ground." When his mother dies, seventeen-year-old Jeremy Pines seeks out his estranged uncle, a badly scarred and bitter recluse - and a hard-rock miner. When not underground, Uncle Aiden is usually holed up in his apartment. But Jeremy's presence - and the memory he evokes - changes everything.W.
