Chapter One
Morgan opened one eye and listened closely. It wasn’t what she heard but what she didn’t hear that made her happy. There was no sound of rain on the roof. For days it had been raining. Her father had joked that maybe it was time to start building an ark and gathering animals two by two. It was a joke, but when you lived right beside a flooding river, it was only a small joke. Morgan was much more concerned about the flooding than she’d ever let on.
She climbed out of bed and looked out the window. The river had retreated. It was still there, rough, white and wide, but it was no longer running through the corner of their backyard. Still, there was proof that it had once been there. The back fence was covered in branches that had been snagged as the floodwaters raced across their property.
