RIVERS NEVER FILL THE SEA A town takes a long, drawn-out breath when it is first born. It bristles and yawns stretches and glows as it develops over time. Each passing era buries its secrets deep in its furrows and locks its mysteries within its boundaries. The land bears the scars of wounds of time past and its people. In the late 1800s, the coastal town of Woodrose was not yet born. It's a curious thing about territory and land, but it seems to follow the same pattern time and again. The first pioneers of a town are the first to leave. Being quickly replaced once the harshness of the virgin soil has been smoothed over, by businessmen, doctors, and lawyers that come in to assist with the further development of it. One such capitalist was Mike Mason.  SUMMARY Set in the 1940s, Rivers Never Fill The Sea follows the lives of two families; the Masons and the Brennans. Mike Mason is a rapacious land developer in the coastal town of Woodrose, California. Hostility begins when Mason buys out a home belonging to former boxer, Ty Brennan, forcing the eviction of his family. The animosity between the two of them grows further when Ty's son and Mike's daughter fall in love, complicating matters. That year, a gambling ship off shore, a dangerous and covert operation that carried a heavy consequence, and a devastating cyclone, all came together one fateful summer and nothing would ever be the same.
