Teenager Lisa Herbert lives in the small town of Mountain View on the planet Fairfield. The "e;Savage Rain"e; decades earlier shut down the hyperspace gate and isolated her world. A casual remark from her sister gets Lisa to ask a simple question: "e;If life was better before the 'Savage Rain,' why couldn't it be better again?"e;That question starts Lisa on a journey. She reactivates Fairfield's H-gate and travels to three worlds. Each planet offers her a chance to improve life by hard work, by trade, or by making friends. She relies on her brains, her compassion, and a little sneakiness to solve the problems she faces.
