Rain: The Blackwater Saga
Even if the years weigh heavily on their shoulders, the Caskey family now enjoy wealth way beyond their wildest dreams.
Parties, lavish receptions and social gatherings give a rhythm to their existence, their days spent in carefree abandonment. But the past is not forgotten and a dark presence looms over Perdido, its inhabitants and its rivers.
The time of reckoning has come.
