When Silence Sings
When Silence Sings | Sarah Loudin Thomas
16 posts | 2 read | 3 to read
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 birthmark 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.

Silence Sings is a novel which is hard to fit into a category. It is set in 1930 in West Virginia with two families stuck in a feud. At the opening, another murder has occurred. The death is that of Colman‘s cousin and it prompts him to reconsider the origins and point of the feud. He feels prompted by God to preach to his family‘s enemy, Serepta. He tries to avoid the calling but life circumstances lands him in the midst of Serepta‘s territory.

The funeral setting in the first chapter was carefully revealed with true to life historical detail. I knew then that I would be captivated to the end by the story written by Sarah Loudin Thomas. And then there was that moment in the book when the title emerged from the story…it made perfect sense. I could hear it and I was able to remember hearing it throughout the story. I‘m definitely being wooed to read it again.

Oh my goodness ~ what a rebel!

LapReader I was thinking today when I was walking down the st to get groceries, in a very loose and floaty dress that was blowing in the wind, that there was a time that such an outfit would have been obscene. Thankfully I was born in the 80‘s and can keep cool and flash my knickers if I want. 5y

Admittedly, Colman wants revenge but he realizes that the road to resolution is harder without God. 🙏🏼

Laura317 This sounds good! Bit of a Jonah feel - You can‘t run from God. 6y
