Publisher's Synopsis

In a typical Australian beachside suburb, climate change can no longer be ignored ...


Constant storms have already damaged Bombora's coastline and no end is in sight. When rising tides force "Vaga," the beloved beachfront restaurant, to finally close it is seen as a grim omen. Community rifts deepen, old friends clash, and some flee the idyllic suburb for safer ground, while others stand firm, defying the increasingly erratic weather.


Mick, a charismatic local figure, faces a family crisis as he grapples with the impending threat. A chance encounter with Renata, an old schoolmate, and her son Guil, a local surfer, forges an improbable alliance. As a menacing storm looms on the horizon, Mick and Guil rally Guil's surfer friends to form a ragtag "tinnie army." When the tempest strikes with unrelenting force, it triggers a chain of events that will alter their lives forever.
