Alex Duval is the mayor of a town about to be wiped off the map. The state plans to flood the entire valley where his town sits in order to build a new reservoir, and Alex is stunned to discover the woman he once loved on the team charged with the demolition. With his world crumbling around him, Alex devises a risky plan to save his town--but he needs Eloise's help to succeed.
Alex is determined to win back the woman he thought he'd lost forever, but even their combined ingenuity may not be enough to overcome the odds against them.
This book is a fictional story based around a true event. The historical details added to this book is as good as in the authors other books. She is a stickler for facts and I appreciate that. Add in a bit of who-dun-it to the story and it makes the story fast paced and a book that keeps you interested.
The main characters Alex and Eloise are so easy to relate too that, that too makes this book well worth reading.
Stars out of 5 : 4 This story was interesting and well written. It made me think about the Haweswater Reservoir in the Lake District, near from where we came from in Britain. In the summer of 2018 it was that hot that the water level went way down and you could see a lot of the village that had to be evacuated to make way for the reservoir. You can read more about it here.
