Description
As relentless rain raises the nearby river, Billie thinks she and her parents are the only people staying in their town and face the threat of flood. They are--except for their elderly neighbor Miss Lydia. Billie forms a friendship with Miss Lydia born out of circumstance, but when Billie faces tragedy, Miss Lydia takes matters into her own hands.
