Notes
Description
Decimated by drought, Nevada and Arizona skirmish over dwindling shares of the Colorado River, while California watches, waiting. Into the fray steps Las Vegas water knife Angel Velasquez, who "cuts" water for the Southern Nevada Water Authority and its boss, Catherine Case, ensuring that her lush, luxurious, "arcology" housing developments can bloom in the desert and that anyone who challenges her is left in the gutted suburban dust. Angel becomes a pawn in a game bigger, dirtier, and far more corrupt than he could have imagined.
