In Salem, Massachusetts, America's leading mansion mover, Jerry Matyiko, attempts to shatter records with the biggest building move of the year. He faces the task of lifting and moving a 1,000-ton church to a new site where it will be redeveloped into a Courthouse Law Library.
The structure is weak and contains a vast auditorium that could cave in during the move if unsupported. Jerry's team must build a grid of steel inside and outside the structure to hold it together during the downhill move. Can the team complete the move before winter storms strike?
