Description

An unprecedented number of hurricanes has distended the Mississippi River to unheard-of levels and is threatening to place New Orleans and all of the low-lying regions of the South under-water. Fifteen-year-old Stephen is spending summer time together with his dad near a little city north of Lake Pontchartrain when another strong storm comes and the levees on the Mississippi River totally crash. Within the disorder and anarchy that outcomes, Stephen's father is murdered, and the child is left to fend for herself. Angela is soon encountered by Stephen, an university student whose parents are also murdered.
