In 2022, a mother named Lein was enjoying a vacation with her family after the hardships of the COVID-19 pandemic in a hidden paradise in the Philippines called Masbate. But their peaceful escape was shattered by an unexplainable phenomenon: all the water on Earth suddenly began to vanish.
A colossal cone enveloped the entire planet, drawing all the water upward and leaving the world dry. Science could not explain it. For some, it marked the end of the world; for others, it was the beginning of chaos—a time to fight for survival in what people began to call: “Kill or get killed.”
In the midst of this global catastrophe, Lein is forced to confront not just the harsh reality of survival, but also herself. To protect her family, she must let her other personalities take control—each more volatile than the last.
One is a seductive, unhinged woman who destroyed her marriage. Another is a playful child, oblivious to danger. There’s a grizzled old farmer obsessed with tobacco, and the most dangerous of all—a psychotic, battle-hardened mother who loses all sense of who’s around her when she takes over.
As the world crumbles, Lein must ask herself: How can she save her family if she can’t even control her own mind? How far would you go for the ones you love? And would you trade your blood for water?
Join Lein in her gripping journey through a dying world, in the breathtaking tale: Drought by I.B. Loyola Get ready to discover how long humanity can survive… without water.
