The Last Drop
2438 18th Street NW Washington
Western civilization collapses during an economic upheaval and water becomes scarce. Pestilence, violence and war drive people away from the cities. Mary and Joe survive in the sand-dunes, desalinating sea water with a ramshackle stil. They scavenge for insects and random crustaceans. Their love is but a faded memory...like the many comforts of their previous life. Then, invaders arrive. Valentino is a shark of a trader. Esmeralda is his accomplice and whore. One ill fated night in their company tears Mary & Joe apart. Ultimately, hidden truths emerge and Mary finds herself at her wit's end with only one way out.
