Summary
"Angel Velasquez "cuts" water in the drought-ravaged Southwest. As wealth and corruption increasingly determine who can drink, he is sent to Phoenix to investigate a possible new water source. There he finds a journalist, a refugee, and a murderous plot to control an entire river. Organized crime, a bleakly realistic take on apocalypse, and three original character perspectives make this near-future thriller a compelling read."--, Library Journal
