Thirst : a novel of the hydrosphere / Giles Foden.

Foden, Giles, 1967- (author.).

Summary:

Set in 2039 on the Skeleton Coast of Namibia, 'Thirst' follows Cat Brosnan, who is searching for a water source believed to lie hidden within this hostile landscape. It's the same thing her mother had done six years ago after abandoning her in Ireland, never to be heard of again. But Cat's not the only one looking for the aquifer. In a world of sand, sun, and water wars, the aquifer begins to seem like a fantasy, Cat's quest for it turns into a mission to find her own true self.
