When family man and war veteran Russell loses his job as a quarry worker, his life suddenly seems more like a waking nightmare than a chance to finally live the American dream. Facing bills, a new baby, and a bone-dry bank account, he's got nothing left to lose. Russell comes to the rescue of a naked stranger dancing in the rain, and what was supposed to be a straightforward good deed turns into a spiral of danger. When Russell finds an enticing stash of money in the woman's house, he knows the cash could be his only hope. Taking just a handful will save his family's future.

His "victimless crime" seems to be anything but risky - until the criminals he robbed come looking for their dirty money. Russell's ready to surrender it, but then his daughter gets sick...and he must choose between saving her or giving the devils their due. Someone's going to pay. The question is, how much?

Wow. If you want to feel the pain, anger, and frustration of taking on someone's battle other than your own. Go to war. The things you learn are so hard fought. Life is tough anyway and then you see things that are not the way you have lived. Soon it becomes your morals against theirs. Your life or theirs. How can you win? I would read a novel by Mr. Silva again and again.

Only the Rain..Really?

Not sure how I felt about the story. It wasn’t gripping or a “page turner”, in fact most of the time I was wondering if it’d ever get to the point, but once it did, it was interesting. Written as a bunch of emails/letters written to a friend, but in too much detail to really be believable (it’d be way too time consuming for anyone to write that much in the little time the character has to write). I can’t say there was anything really special about the story, but the narrator wasn’t bad. I just wasn’t drawn into it and didn’t really care much about any of the characters. The main character leaned on being a vet way too much, despite it sometimes not feeling all that relevant, the wife seemed to be too “wife-character” and didn’t seem to have much else built into her. I sped up the audio to get through it faster, but only so it’d be over faster, not because I was dying to know what came next.

Enjoyed, but wouldn’t recommend it
