Young country curate, Roger Strawbridge, and his wife, Cathy, find themselves in financial distress. In a desperate attempt to resolve their money troubles, Cathy decides to gamble on the football pools. The drama unfolds as she unexpectedly wins a massive jackpot—the "golden rain" of the title. However, the windfall brings moral and social complications rather than relief. The couple must navigate the ethical dilemma of a clergyman's family profiting from gambling, alongside the sudden, overwhelming pressures and unwanted attention that come with their new-found wealth.
