Story198
On 11 March 2011, a massive earthquake sent a 120-foot-high tsunami smashing into the coast of Northeast Japan. By the time the sea retreated, more than 18,000 people had been crushed, burned to death, or drowned. It was Japan's greatest single loss of life since the atomic bombing of Nagasaki. It set off a national crisis and the meltdown of a nuclear power plant. And even after the immediate emergency had abated, the trauma of the disaster continued to express itself in bizarre and mysterious ways.

Deep in a vast tropical rainforest, Kit and Lara escape the hollowness of modern life by doing charitable work in a jungle village. With them is their tiny baby, Helen, who flourishes under the vigilant care of her father. Their life of idyllic isolation is shattered by the arrival of an outsider with frightening news: close at hand, across the border, violence is looming. Kit unwittingly holds evidence, hidden on a tiny memory card, of the world-shattering event that is unfolding, the desperate power-play of a flailing superpower.
