Bolivar Ferry

A series of disasters plague a couple in Houston, Texas. No this is not 2020. The year is 2014 and hydraulic fracturing is dramatically changing the oil industry with unintended results. The price of oil tanks, thousands of workers lose their jobs, and companies go bankrupt. Kate and Wally also have to deal with a rare disease that must be treated with an obscenely expensive orphan drug. Their finances take a beating, they have the misfortune of tangling with drug dealers trying to kill them, and Mother Nature tries to drown the whole city during hurricane season.
