Key Selling Points

  • Two foster brothers pull together to survive when a flash flood leaves them stranded in their already evacuated neighborhood.
  • The story highlights the importance of foster care, providing safe spaces for troubled youth and being prepared for emergencies, while exploring themes of growing up and taking responsibility.
  • The characters’ neurodivergence—attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD) and fetal alcohol spectrum disorder (FASD)—is depicted realistically and with sensitivity.
  • This is a gripping, realistic depiction of what it might be like to experience a flash flood and its aftermath. Gabrielle Prendergast is also the author of the Orca Anchor title Aftershock, which follows the story of two half sisters after an earthquake.
  • Enhanced features (dyslexia-friendly font, cream paper, larger trim size) to increase reading accessibility for dyslexic and other striving readers.
