About the Book
★★★★★
Lillian Porter has always wanted to fulfill her mother's dream of going west, so when she hears about a nanny position in Angels Camp, California, she defies her grandfather and takes a chance on a new future. But she quickly wonders if she made the right choice. There are rumors in town that her new employer, Woodward Colton, caused the death of his wife. This accusation doesn't match the man Lillian comes to know – and Mrs. Goodman, Woody's long-time housekeeper, is decisively on Woody's side – but many in town stay far away from Lillian because of her association with the Colton family.

Lillian's six-year-old charge, Jimmy, was there when his mother died, and he hasn't spoken a word since. Gently, Lillian tries to coax him out of his shell, hoping he'll one day feel safe enough to tell her the truth about what happened. But the Colton olive farm is no longer a safe place. Lillian encounters suspicious characters on their land and mysterious damage done to the farm. Will Mrs. Goodman and Jimmy be able to speak what they know in time to save Lillian from tragedy?


Collaborating once again, Tracie Peterson and Kimberley Woodhouse deliver a wonderfully exciting and suspenseful novel. Beyond the Silence follows Lillian Porter, as she pursues her dream to travel west and becomes a nanny, and Woodward Colton, as he grieves the loss of his wife, determines to help his son heal, and hopes to escape a murder charge. These characters are dear, and I loved seeing them interact and grow over the course of the novel. It’s a great read for fans of historical fiction - with plenty of drama, action, and romance. I thoroughly enjoyed it and would certainly recommend it.

  1. The ultimate tragedy is not the oppression and cruelty by the bad people but the silence over that by the good people. See the link below for more info.
