The Shape of Rain

Claire Bellamy restores houses the world has forgotten. She keeps the burned places and the worn wood - the marks left behind by the people who once loved them. She has spent twenty years making homes for others while keeping none for herself.When she arrives at a remote adobe in the New Mexico mountains to begin a restoration, she discovers that the woman who hired her has died only weeks before - leaving behind a grieving husband, Daniel, and a house he is preparing to let go.But the house is not empty.As summer storms gather over the mountains, messages begin appearing on an old chalkboard in a handwriting that should not exist - guiding Claire through the work, revealing what the walls remember, and drawing two wounded strangers slowly, impossibly, toward one another.The Shape of Rain is a haunting, deeply human novel about grief, healing, and the people who change us long after they're gone.
