Flood is a 2002 disaster thriller novel by Richard Doyle. Set in present-day London, the novel depicts a disastrous flood and fire of London, caused by a storm, and the consequential accident at an oil refinery, and failure of the Thames Barrier.[1] The plot is similar to his 1976 novel Deluge, updated to include the construction of the Thames Flood Barrier.[2]
The book was adapted into a 2007 disaster film, Flood, directed by Tony Mitchell.[3]
