Fans of classic frontier survival stories, as well as readers of
dystopian literature, will enjoy this futuristic story where water
is worth more than gold. New York Times bestselling author Michael
Grant says Not a Drop to Drink is a debut "not to be missed." With
evocative, spare language and incredible drama, danger, and
romance, Mindy McGinnis depicts one girl's journey in a
frontierlike world not so different from our own.
Teenage Lynn has been taught to defend her pond against every
threat: drought, a snowless winter, coyotes, and most important,
people looking for a drink. She makes sure anyone who comes near
the pond leaves thirsty--or doesn't leave at all. Confident in her
own abilities, Lynn has no use for the world beyond the nearby
fields and forest. But when strangers appear, the mysterious
footprints by the pond, nighttime threats, and gunshots make it all
too clear Lynn has exactly what they want, and they won't stop
until they get it. . . .
For more in this gritty world, join Lynn on an epic journey to
find home in the companion novel, In a Handful of Dust.
