A landslide woke up geological surveyor Jiang Wanting at the border with no water, and she became the daughter of a sinner.
The last well in Shimentun has bottomed out, leaving more than 300 people with only 97 days left to survive. If no new water source is found within ten days, she and her aunt will be sent to the mine. Everyone believed that the Jiang family would only bring disaster. Only Jiang Wanting discovered from the half-wet rope and the empty sound on the well wall: the well was not dug shallow, but on the wrong side.
But when she traced the old water channel, the measuring stakes were pulled out overnight, and the most crucial page of the construction records left by her father was missing. The canal collapse accident that incriminated the Jiang family seemed to have been no accident from the beginning.
Who intercepted the water? What is the secret that my father is trying so hard to hide?
Between the life and death of the whole village and a dusty old case, Jiang Wanting has only one way: to find the missing water.
