Clothed in Thunder

In the Shadow of the Cedar, Book 2

By: Abagail Eldan

Narrated by: Sarah Rogers

Leaving behind all they have ever known and loved, Sarah-Jane and Zeke Hunter struggle to fit into their new lives with an aunt and uncle they barely know.

Although Liza and Howard Barnett appear nice enough, could they be the reason Sarah Jane is treated as an outcast at her new school? And worst of all is Michael. His behavior leads to nothing but heartbreak.

When her former tormentor, Dan, comes back into her life claiming to have changed, can she trust him? Will Dan give her another chance at happiness?

When all around is clothed in thunder, only the shadow of the cedar drives the clouds away.
