520 |a Based on exclusive interviews with survivors, rescuers, and with the families and friends of victims of Queensland's catastrophic summer of 2011, this is a powerful account of human courage. Of all the stories to emerge from the disaster the most dramatic and starkly tragic were those that took place in Toowoomba and the Lockyer Valley. On January 10, 2011, after weeks of heavy rain and as floodwaters began to overwhelm much of southeast Queensland, an "inland tsunami" hit the city of Toowoomba, the rural districts of Spring Bluff, and Postmans.
