Relationships are formed and tested in A Telling silence, the second installment of the When Calls the Heart series. The town of Coal Valley rushes together in a search party for a missing girl, but it is just as quickly torn apart when Jack Thornton arrests respected widow Cat Montgomery for burning down a local church. Riddled with more dark secrets than guilt, Cat sheds light on her whereabouts the night of the fire, sending Jack and Elizabeth (Erin Krakow) on a dangerous search for the truth.
