'When new parents Darcy and Talia leave the city to use their hard-earned savings to buy their forty acres of dream on remote Blackbutt Mountain, they build a solar powered, rain-water fed, self sufficient house and garden, thinking they've got all bases covered. They pay to get their tanks filled and wait for the rain. But the rain doesn't come, their tanks dry up, as does their money...their dreams and hopes begin to evaporate, as their lives suddenly take a dire turn for the worse...all they need is rain... Water Tight by Donna Cameron was inspired by the time she spent living on acreage in the mountain range of Ravensbourne at the height of the Queensland drought.' (ABC Radio National website)
