When Silence Sings

De: Sarah Loudin Thomas

Narrado por: Leah Horowitz

Colman Harpe works for the C&O in the Appalachian rail town of Thurmond, West Virginia, but he'd rather be a preacher and lead his own congregation. When a member of the rival McLean clan guns down his cousin and the clan matriarch, Serepta McLean, taunts the Harpes by coming to a tent revival in their territory, Colman chooses peace over seeking revenge with the rest of his family.

Colman, known for an unnaturally keen sense of hearing, is shocked when he hears God tell him to preach to the McLeans. A failed attempt to run away leaves Colman sick and suffering in the last place he wanted to be - McLean territory. Nursed by herbalist Ivy Gordon - a woman whose unusual appearance has made her an outcast - he's hindered in his calling by Serepta's iron grip on the region and his uncle's desire to break that grip. But appearances can be deceiving, and he soon learns that the face of evil doesn't look like he expected.

The depth of main characters and their hearts were beautiful.

This book captured me from the beginning. A kind, gentle, real portrayal of love and reconciliation.

Great story

What a wonderful story about forgiveness and redemption. God is always with us. He’s waiting for us to come to him.

A book that changes you.

This author catches my attention quickly and keeps it. This is another book that entertained e well. But w importantly, each character feels like a little piece of me, which is why, when I watch them open up to God, I know I can too.
