I bought this book initially because it is written by author Nora Roberts. One of the all time best novel writers around. Her novels are always suspense filled, with some romance and twists and turns I never thought of in the course of the reading. This book was about many twists involving the adoption of a baby girl and how as an adult it led to murder and intrigue. Thie is one of her finer writings. Her heroine is strong willed and upright morally. Her dilemnas are ones we can relate to in the real world. Nora also always writes in a fashion that teaches about jobs or places we have never known before. Her characters are as real as possible, and it is hard to put her books down. I highly recommend this reading, as one of her finest and most surprising in terms of unfolding the story.Read full review
This is probably my favorite of Nora Roberts's suspense titles. It has a nice balance between romance and mystery without the family saga element that seems to be present in a few of her newer titles. I especially like the fact that the relationship between the two main characters is very complex with lots of history. The archaeology element is nicely done (lots of detail without overdoing it with minutiae). I've pared down much of my Roberts collection, but this is one I'll definitely keep.
Storyline is awesome! This is definitely one to read over and over.

i like the author,she writes a great story and has alot of info about the subjects she uses;her books tend to allow the reader to like the main characters,and she does not subject them to tragedy,as many contemporary authors seem to; a good beach read,or for a snowy shut in day !
I'm not sure how I missed this when it was new. I really loved Callie. The whole archaeology theme was very fancinating and gave so much detail. All the characters had great personality. This is definitely a great addition to my Nora Roberts collection.
