Set during Israel's 2014 assault on Gaza, A Hard Rain Over Palestine tells the story of Dan Small, a British-Algerian journalist drawn into the heart of a brutal war. Fluent in Arabic and bound by friendship to a Jewish colleague, Dan travels to Gaza intending to report on daily life under blockade. But as bombs begin to fall, he becomes an eyewitness to seven weeks of relentless destruction.
In the ruins of Gaza, Dan meets Carol Hussain, an American journalist. Together, they navigate the chaos, report the truth, and bear witness to the human cost of a conflict long ignored.
Though the characters are fictional, the events are drawn from reality - a war that killed thousands, devastated entire neighbourhoods, and revealed the deep political failures that continue to fuel the conflict. With sharp insight and a powerful human lens, James Wrenn explores the wider story of occupation, resistance, and the price of silence.
This is more than a story of war. It is a call to remember, to question, and to refuse the idea that this violence is inevitable. A Hard Rain Over Palestine is a necessary and moving portrait of lives lived - and lost - in the shadow of history.
