Two Welshmen, father and son, have come from slate quarries in the west to demolish the last few buildings in the village.

John Noble has come, with his beautiful step-daughter, to help an old friend move from the doomed village to a new house above the lake.
Following a long drought, there is a fierce storm and water begins to rush into the valley. Among the young passions rise and none of their lives will ever be the same again.
"...a wonderful subject and a fascinating story. The characters are well presented and each rings true.
I worried about the tragic ending, but this too is true to the situation and period."
