**EVERYONE'S GOING TO REMEMBER WHERE THEY WERE WHEN THE TAPS WENT DRY.** The drought--or the Tap-Out, as everyone calls it--has been going on for a while now. Everyone's life has become an endless list of don'ts: don't water the lawn, don't fill up your pool, don't take long showers. Until the taps run dry. Suddenly Alyssa's quiet suburban street spirals into a war zone of desperation; neighbors and families turning against one another in the hunt for water. When her parents don't return, and she and her brother are threatened, Alyssa has to make impossible choices if she's going to survive. Critically acclaimed author Neal Shusterman teams up with Jarrod Shusterman in this story of survival, when the California drought escalates to catastrophic proportions. This description comes from the publisher.
