Los Angeles is destroyed by an earth shaker and a disastrous flood follows. Pen goes out on an Odyssey-like journey to find and reunite with her family. Along the way she encounters sirens, witches, bandits and makes new friends. Pen discovers that love is there when you least expect it. The book is reminiscent of Homer’s classic and is a fabulous book to read side by side with it.
