As Cyclone Yasi evolves into a series of tropical storms ravaging the area, three families are travelling along different routes headed for the bridge.Meanwhile, as dense fog shrouds the district in an impenetrable blanket, blurring and distorting the carnage at the bridge, locals are being rescued from the rooftops of their sheds as flood waters surge across the land.Finally there’s the good guy cop, called to the scene to wash away the blood and tend to the maimeded. He’s new in town, exiled from the city for causing a media storm. Nobody’s thought to tell him, but someone’s after him, with a score to settle.Farmers are out early the next morning, inspecting the damage, not suspecting for one moment they are about to walk into the center of a different disaster. And this one’s not of nature’s making.McKenzie’s Bridge... Where Nightmares become reality 3
