One family in New Orleans who've weathered floods many times before; ride out the storms and soon realize the the flood waters are not receding and are actually rising. They try to make their way to the midwest where it has been rumored to have dry land large enough to support the survivors of the United States. But on their journey they find that the human race has become a tribal system, and when human beings are in "survival mode", they are capable of any amount of brutality.
This one has enough possibilities in it to be a novel. Think present day "waterworld" with...actually, don't think "waterworld" that was a horrible movie. Let's just give you the gist of it: A solar flare has wiped out electronics and any modern communication. On top of all that, the polar ice caps have melted and all the fault lines in the world have shook the Earth causing Tsunamis and flooding. over 80% of the United States is under water.

An author traveling the back roads of the midwest comes upon a strange woman and her mentally disturbed 12 year old daughter. It's a scortching 107 degrees and he pulls over to offer them a ride.
She's toothless and a bit mentally challenged and as the conversation progresses, she begins making crazy advances towards him along with saying some hidden threats. As this disturbing conversation ensues, the daughter curls into a ball and begins wailing at the top of her lungs. Refusing to get out of his car, and insisting on giving him "payment", this turns into the ride from hell. |
