It have been raining for weeks. Maybe weeks. He had neglected the previous day it hadn't rained, when the storms gave way to the pale blue of the Gulf sky, when the parrots flew and the clouds were white and sunshine glistened across the drenched land. Following many years of catastrophic hurricanes, the Gulf Shoreline - stretching from the Florida panhandle to the european Louisiana boundary - has been brought to its knees. The spot is so punished and depleted that the federal government has drawn a fresh boundary ninety miles north of the coastline. Life below the Line offers no services, no electricity, no resources, and the ones who stay behind live by their own rules. Cohen is person who stayed. Unable to get over the crushing lack of his partner and unborn child who had been wiped out during an evacuation, he went back home to Mississippi to bury them on family land. Until now he hasn't got the durability to leave them behind, even to save lots of himself. But after his home is ransacked and all of his carefully gathered supplies taken, Cohen is finally obligated from his shelter. On the highway north, he encounters a colony of survivors led with a fanatical, snake-handling preacher known as Aggie who have dangerous visions of repopulating the barren region. Realizing what's waiting for you for the women Aggie is possessing against their will, Cohen is faced with a conclusion: continue to the Line together, or make an effort to shepherd the madman's captives across the unforgiving land with the largest hurricane yet bearing down - and Cohen harboring a top secret that may present the greatest risk of all. Eerily prophetic in its depiction of a southern scenery ravaged by extreme weather, Waterways is a masterful story of success and redemption in a world where the next devastating surprise is never way behind.
