Cascade

Description

In Ottawa, a scandal-plagued government clings to power, kept afloat by the manipulations of its precognitive political rainman, Ian Mallory. But when his predictions signal only catastrophe ahead, the magic-loathing photojournalist Tobias, land rights activist Jonah, climate scientist Blythe, and emoji-spell wielding intern Sujay must overcome ideology and bureaucracy to save a future from a present whose agenda spells only doom.

Set in a terrifying but all-too believable near future and leavened with a dry wit, Cascade features a cast of fully-realized characters drawn into conflict with each other as they each strive to do the right thing. But who can know what the right thing is, when every choice promises only catastrophe?
