Dr. Cara Blake is a retired engineer who’s been out of work for about two decades. She lives in the mountains, alone, well above the overflowing rivers that have ravaged human society, with an electric vehicle she hasn’t started in five years. During her last major project, she retrofitted an old, local dam to prevent it from collapsing under the effects of climate change. Now, the dam is on the verge of failure, and Dr. Blake is the only one who possesses the knowledge and experience to keep it intact. Will Dr. Blake find a way to step in? Find out in “Last Dam Standing,” read and written by Dawn Vogel
