Mina Vale tends fruit trees on the roof of a heat-struck coastal city, where peaches grow beside solar panels and every bucket of rainwater is counted.
When her neighborhoods taps run dry during the hottest week of the year, city officials blame drought, old pipes, and bad luck. Mina knows the garden data says otherwise. Somewhere inside the private water network, an algorithm is quietly starving blocks that cannot pay premium rates.
With the help of a soft-spoken repair engineer, a retired schoolteacher, a rooftop beekeeper, and the stubborn neighbors who have become her found family, Mina begins tracing the missing water from balcony cisterns to corporate towers and sealed desalination plants.
The closer she gets, the more she risks losing the orchard that keeps her community alive.
The Rooftop Orchard is an uplifting solarpunk climate fiction novel about community resilience, gentle romance, renewable technology, found family, and ordinary people building a future worth staying for.
