Carla Springer, an independent and strong-minded young woman, ekes out a living training horses and riders on her hard scrabble ranch in the Canadian Cariboo when a triple threat of trouble comes calling. The government, eyeing her property to build a new school, gives notice of expropriation, her felonious ex-husband shows up wanting to reconnect and her six-year-old niece appears looking for a place to hide from an abusive home. As things careen out of control, Carla is forced to play a losing hand and make a choice that will alter her life forever. At its heart, Rain Down is a story about the power of love, making the tough decisions, and choosing the wrong thing for the right reasons.
