Leah is a child from Away, isolated from her 
peers because of her stutter. But then she begins painting scenes that are epic 
in scope, brilliant in detail, and suffused with rich, prophetic imagery. When 
the event foreshadowed in the first painting dramatically comes true, the town 
of Mattingly takes notice. 
Leah attributes her ability to foretell the 
future to an invisible friend she calls the Rainbow Man. Some of the townsfolk 
are enchanted with her. Others fear her. But there is one thing they all agree 
on—there is no such thing as the Rainbow Man. 
Her father, the town psychologist, is falling 
apart over his inability to heal his daughter . . . or fix his marriage. And the 
town minister is unraveled by the notion that a mere child with no formal 
training may be hearing from God more clearly than he 
does. 
While the town bickers over what to do with 
this strange child, the content of Leah’s paintings grows darker. Still, Leah 
insists that the Rainbow Man’s heart is pure. But then a dramatic and tragic 
turn of events leaves the town reeling and places everyone’s lives in danger. 
Now the people of Mattingly face a single choice: 
Will they cling to what they know . . . or 
embrace the things Leah believes in that cannot be seen?
