This is the first of five Novellas in a near term Science Fiction Post-Apocalyptic series.

Yet below the deceptive relatively quiet surface, which only hints at the incredible power below, millions of tons of simmering ground water sit waiting under ultra-high pressure between hundreds of feet of solid hard ...
