I enjoyed this book, but I can't give it five stars, because when compared to other books of this genre it comes up short. However, it's interesting because of the herbal aspect and the Indian aspect. I think it's worth reading even if it's not the best I've read.

First book I've read by Sharyn Mccrumb and I didn't know how well I'd like her story, but it was well written and kept my attention.

Another great quick read from Sharyn McCrumb. Witty quips and zany dialogue. This one focuses on a research project surrounding some not so well known Indians from Appalachia :)

I could almost give a Sharon McCrum book 5 stars without reading it. As the reviewer said: "Who but Sharyn McCrumb can make a skull with a bullet hole funny?" In this Elizabeth MacPherson outing, the action takes place at an obscure archaeological dig in North Carolina. It takes Elizabeth's lively intellect to figure out just what is behind mysterious deaths plaguing the project.
