Dry

Rome’s three-year drought has turned water into black-market currency, and everyone’s chasing a drop—even the people chasing everyone else. A cantankerous hydrologist, his idealistic niece, and a slick water thief orbit each other as the city steams toward snap judgments and sudden showers. What starts as a farce quietly drowns in its own premise.
