Inconvenient Pipeline Geoff Strong

The Nicholson family spot an oil slick on the Nicola River on the first day of their vacation in Merritt, BC. Julia resolves the oil slick source, and a series of mysteries that follow, involving the oil industry, federal government, and the Nicola-Coldwater First Nations bands opposed to a new pipeline construction. She and her friend Leah discover a serious pipeline break on Coldwater lands and expose a cover-up by the oil company. The pipeline story climaxes with a major oil spill disaster.
