Swept Away

A Forbidden Love, a Neglected Dam, a Doomed Valley In 1889, Johnstown, Pennsylvania is a steel mill boomtown. But for 18 year old Samuel Wulff, it's a grimy dead end with the mills his only future. His one beacon is Abigail Walker, the pretty socialite he meets to steal kisses ... and more! Theirs is a clandestine courtship though, as both their families strictly forbid it. But a threat far worse than their secret affair lurks in the bustling valley - an aging dam upriver. Behind it lurks the swollen waters of Lake Conemaugh. When torrential rains pour down on Johnstown's Memorial Day parade, it is only a matter of time before the dam bursts, the river floods, and they are all Swept Away.
