Rainwater

About “Rainwater”

The year is 1934, and Ella Barron runs her Texas boardinghouse while caring for her ten-year-old son, Solly, in the midst of drought and economic depression. When David Rainwater arrives seeking lodging, recommended as a man of impeccable character, his presence brings unsettling changes that intersect with the growing turbulence beyond the house walls, including financial ruin, racial tensions, and the violent actions of Conrad Ellis and his gang, ultimately testing Rainwater’s principles on the hottest, most violent night of the summer.
