An 8.0 earthquake almost completely destroyed Interstate 5 in California's Central Valley, heavily damaged the California aqua duct and cracked the holding ponds of a toxic waste facility that released the toxic chemicals, heavy metals, and plastic effluvium, a witch's brew, that poisoned miles of the most fertile land in the world. Stephanie Granger's master's project was to study the extent of the poisoning and what methods, if any, might return the land to production. Not long into her research, influence, pressure, and eventually death threats from the conglomerate that owned the toxic waste facility, hound her in her search for the truth. She is forced to flee from the university lab that had become her second home, and armed with her lab and field work studies, endeavors to put the research findings together to save the land, her friends, and herself!
