People of the Flood

Description

They try to tame a world, but fail to tame their hearts. Eight terrified men and women, four families, survive the raging Deluge. They land on an empty Earth, with strange winds that howl across the desolation of the world. Every thought should focus on survival. But the passions suppressed in the Ark now boil into feuds that pass on to their children. Gaea—the mother of all, she strives to maintain unity. Kush—proud and stubborn, he courts a love that could shatter his heart. Ham—trains his sons to dominate, laughs at his drunken father and receives a terrible curse. Deborah—beautiful but cunning, she can’t decide which of Noah’s grandsons should taste her embrace. Beor—loves beauty and possesses the courage of a giant. His goodness brings him the evilest treachery.
