Shauna McDade lost her husband, Jack, in a climbing accident. Now she's raising their son, Alex, and trying to keep her helicopter charter business going. When her good friend gives her a box to give to his wife along with a crypt message, Shauna fears she may be in danger. Zach Bannister was her husband's best friend and a good friend to her too. She however, blames him for Jack's death and has had nothing to do with him since then. Then something happens that requires her to seek his help and protection. Zach blames himself for what happened to Jack, so he's willing to help Shauna out with whatever she needs. Neither one is prepared for the feelings that arise as well as the secrets; ones that go all way back to when Shauna was just a girl.
WOW! Coble does it again! This was not only hard to put down but difficult to figure out. It kept me turning pages as fast as I could to find out just who was involved. I love it when a story challenges me that way. I enjoyed getting to know Shauna, Zach and Alex. All really great characters! There is a back story concerning Shauna that I believe will carry over to the next book, which I can't wait to read! One thing I really appreciated was the little spiritual truths that popped up all through the story. I found that very encouraging. The View from Rainshadow Bay has a beautiful soothing cover. But reader beware, once you open the book you'll find yourself in the middle of a well-crafted, hard to put down, full of twists and turns story that will keep up long past your bed time. It's one I highly recommend.

Some favorite moments:
Life doesn't always fit into our neat boxes.
âHave the courage to admit you want justice for you, not for them. Justice this side of heaven is a myth. It's not our job anyway. Real justice belongs to God.â
God never said bad things wouldn't happen, but he's promised to work those things for good in our lives.
God is faithful through everything that comes.
