A decade after the Covid virus a new and more devastating disaster strikes the world. As climate change tightens its grip weather patterns become more erratic, from extreme heat to long periods of monsoon-like rainfall. Large parts of the world are inundated and in a flood of apocalyptic proportions anywhere on high ground becomes a refuge from the rising water. With the country effectively under martial law architect Adam Woolton's precious home is besieged by desperate people from all over the region deposited in open country from the air to fend for themselves. His chance rescue of a young child left alone in a drowning village and his crazy joke about building an ark bring him to the attention of the military. He finds himself out of his depth in a mystery involving the child and her mother. Meanwhile the water is still rising.
