Water Spies: A Novel

Three unlikely conspirators-an eleven-year-old girl, a retired government investigator, and an activist teacher--work together to block the privatization of a local spring for profit--by initiating action to prevent an out-of-town investor from establishing a water bottling plant. Their collaboration, within the contexts of community organizing and a natural disaster, leads to meaningful transformation for each of them. How they come to trust and depend upon each other provides a wellspring for wider, and riskier, actions. Their exchanges, in the contexts of community organizing and a natural disaster, lead to meaningful transformation for each of them. A tribute to the power and mystery of water. "The largeness of spirit, thought, and heart is so clear in Water Spies." --Shirley Glubka, author of Return to a Meadow 9781491742297 1491742291 0 Fiction NOT_MATURE http://books.google.com/books/content?id=9B_EoQEACAAJ&printsec=frontcover&img=1&zoom=5&source=gbs_api en
