The Salton Sea is the biggest lake in California. It is drying up and will soon become the source of deadly toxic waste and pulmonary disorders unless it is preserved. One such solution is to build a canal from the Sea of Cortez in Mexico. The main character in the novel is an engineer who promotes the canal along with his girl friend and faithful dog. They travel to Baja and Sacramento finally convincing them to build the canal for a fraction of the cost of a previous proposal advocated by politicians. The story is punctuated by romance, hijacking, shark attacks, flying in Baja and numerous obstacles until finally water flows into the Salton Sea and land values soar along with the waterfowl who return to its shores.
