A few hours before dawn, Magdalena can no longer feel her legs or hands. In a sick stupor, she has been sitting there for hours, feet out before her, back against the corner post of the champa. As conscious thought begins to slip away into the well of darkness, she reaches out to the baby she is losing and weakly hopes that they will both be dead before the dogs or the zopilotes find them. A compelling narrative of the desperate journey of a young Honduran woman, The Rainwoman is the tale of an improbable rescue that turns on the quantum mechanics of a raindrop, the unreserved kindness of the rural poor, and the sacrifice of a struggling missionary. With a profound sense of compassion and appreciation for his neighbors in the community where he lives and works, Dr. Jeff McKenney writes honestly and clearly from what he has experienced firsthand. The Rainwoman offers a challenging consideration of a Creator who can change the future with a single raindrop.
