A Place for Our Rain is the story of an unlikely friendship between two women: a survivor of the 1906 San Francisco Earthquake-now the young deputy county coroner of Prescott, Arizona-and a Whiskey Row saloon girl from that town. Together they learn about their different worlds as they unravel a murder that leads them on a wild chase to San Francisco and back to Arizona to stop the assassination of Theodore Roosevelt atop a high dam-all on the tenuous eve of Arizona's statehood. Also along the way they collect a remarkable crew of friends to help them, including astronomer Percival Lowell. Historical fiction.
