Title: The Clouds Roll Away
Author: Sibella Giorello
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
Genre: Fiction
Sibella Giorello’s The Clouds Roll Away is a suspense novel revolving around Raleigh Harmon. This book is a sequel to Giorello’s last The Rivers Run Dry. I haven’t read that book but want to read, however this doesn’t block the understanding of characters and story of this novel.
Raleigh Harmon is a FBI agent who excels in Forensic skills. After completing a project in Seattle, she returns to her home in Richmond, Virginia only to discover a new chaos in her life. She finds a horrible cross burning at a celebrity’s mansion and has to deal with a new case. Her boss got her own ego problems and keeps on creating more problems for her. She has a personal life with lots of troubles too. Her mother is mentally ill; she has to deal with her ex-boyfriend on every step. Her skills and her faith are her only arsenal to get out of all these.
The novel is written through Raleigh Harmon’s perspective which adds up to know her state of mind. As the story unfolds lot of characters with their own secrets gets involved making this novel a good thriller. This book comprises of many scientific explanations making it more realistic and educational. The only weak part about the book is multiple story lines which are loosely bonded. Also this book is too garrulous.
On final note, this novel is a good page turner and I am looking for its sequel The Mountains Bow Down.
Rating: 4.5/5
