Pedro’s on a mission. But not your everyday, run-of-the-mill type mission. Because Pedro is dead.
That’s right. Dead.
Spirit guide Pedro normally busies himself with conveying messages from departed loved ones through a psychic named Gwen. But when he encounters a recently deceased teenager, the boy’s anguish just about breaks Pedro’s heart. So the spirit guide decides to try and help this boy. Yet meddling in the affairs of the living is a troublesome business, as Pedro soon discovers.
Nevertheless, he convinces Gwen to take an ocean voyage, and that’s when the trouble begins. Within days of leaving port, two passengers on the cruise ship fall into a mysterious coma. Gwen seeks Pedro’s help to restore these passengers, but natural as well as unnatural obstacles keep getting in the way. And by the time the ship docks in Honolulu, the still-living are flat out scrambling for their lives!
A playful blend of science fiction and the paranormal, The Color of Clouds offers a glimpse into the unseen world while taking the reader on an extraordinary ride. The adventure includes danger, mystery, humor, sweet romance and even a dash of thriller.
But the clouds are not what you think.
About The Author –
J.C. Whyte discovered her love for writing while still in elementary school, creating children’s stories. But as an adult, J.C. had to face the harsh reality that such writing seldom pays the bills. So she earned degrees in both Journalism and Communications, and then turned to Public Relations, where for ten years she focused her creative energies into feature writing.
After marriage, kids, several more degrees and occupations (including stints as a travel agent and paralegal), J. C. entered law school. While there, she became a columnist for the school newsletter and later, one of her humorous articles was even published in The National Jurist.
Graduating and passing the Bar, J.C. realized within a few short years that creative writing was still what made her heart sing. So now, as a grandma, she has returned to where her life’s calling began, beginning in 2013 with publication of her children’s book Karmack and now in 2015 with her first novel for adults, The Color of Clouds

My review: The Color of Clouds by J.C. Whyte
4 Stars
This was a very interesting murder mystery. Part science fiction and paranormal. I was surprised at the different twists and turns the book took. I hated each time I had to put the book down.
The characters were likable and you wanted everything to work out for them. You did not know if somethings would work out to your liking.
Pedro is a spirit guide who can get messages to Gwen a psychic .
Paul and Deanna Strumbolt Paul is a Professor and researcher in physics at Stanford.
Ernst Ostermann was in the German army in WW11 he was a mechanical engineer
Sylvie used to work in travel agency. Ernst and Sylvie meet and travel together every 6 months.
Gwen and Jo are sisters who won the cruise. They all sit together in dinning room. First night Gwen gets a warning that if the cruise goes off course to avoid the hurricane there will be trouble. From Pedro. Of course does not believe in what he can't see.
The science was believable and made sense in the story. So did the paranormal aspects of the story. I could believe that it had happened in the story.
The action scenes and dramatic scenes in the end seemed real and scary. Some of the humor was so funny and worked out just right.
The setting was along cruise of 21 days and crossed the international date line. started in Sidney Australia and ends in San Diego, CA
This book worked for me. It all came together really well. I would read more from J.C. whyte after reading this.
