Description
The California drought has reached catastrophic proportions, turning everyday life into an impossible struggle. As the taps run dry, the rules of survival are rewritten. Alyssa's quiet suburban street descends into chaos as neighbours turn against each other in a desperate bid for water. With her parents missing and her brother's life threatened, Alyssa must make impossible choices to stay alive. In this gripping story, the line between right and wrong is constantly blurred, forcing Alyssa to confront the harsh realities of survival in a world where resources are scarce. As the situation spirals out of control, Alyssa's only hope for survival lies in making tough decisions that will determine her fate - and that of those she loves.
