Book Description:
When five-thousand-year-old human bones are found at a construction site in the small town of Woodsboro, the news draws archaeologist Callie Dunbrook out of her sabbatical and into a whirlwind of adventure, danger, and romance.
While overseeing the dig, she must try to make sense of a cloud of death and misfortune that hangs over the project-fueling rumors that the site is cursed. And she must cope with the presence of her irritating-but irresistible-ex-husband, Jake. Furthermore, when a stranger claims to know a secret about her privileged Boston childhood, she is forced to question her own past as well.
A rich, thrilling, suspenseful tale, Birthright follows an inspiring heroine, an intriguing hero, and a cast of fascinating characters whose intertwined lives remind us that there is much more going on under the surface than meets the eye.

As with all Nora Roberts books, I loved this book! It was hard to put down. Nora knows just how to combine the right amounts of romance and suspense! Recommended to any and all Nora fans!

This book is fantastic for many reasons. First of all, it is a mystery. While I'd predicted the right group of people to contain the perp., I did not correctly predict the actual perp. Well done, Nora Roberts!
The second reason that this book is fantastic is because it has a theme that runs through it about empathy and awareness of how other people are feeling. This is something that I see less and less of in modern America and something we could use a bit more of.
The third reason this book is fantastic is due to the theme of second chances. It shows that true strength sometimes comes from taking a good look at your situation and deciding that you aren't happy with it.
Stubbornness is childish.
Forgiveness is godly.
Wonderful!

Nora Roberts' books are always winners. 5,000 year old human bones are found at a construction site in the small town of Woodsboro and archaeologist Callie Dunbrook comes out of her sabbatical to go to Woodsboro and gets involved in a whirlwind of adventure, danger, and romance. While overseeing the dig, Callie must try to make sense of a cloud of death and misfortune that hangs over the project -fueling rumors that the site is cursed. She must cope with the presence of her irritating ex-husband. And when a stranger claims to know a secret about her privileged Boston childhood, she must question her own past as well.

I loved this book! It was hard to put down. Romance and suspense!
A great Nora Roberts novel! It's about a female archaeologist, Callie Dunbrook, who discovers the meaning of bones found on a dig and that she also has a past that needs discovering. I loved it!!
One of the best books I've read by Nora Roberts.
This is a great book full of suspense and emotion. I couldn't put it down!
Interesting. A bit different from her others with the setting in the Blue Ridge Mountains and focus on archaeology.
Exceptionally good book by Roberts. Good suspense and romance.
