This is not a book I would typically pick up to read. It was my book club book for the month. Based on real people and real happenings, it's a fictional story that takes place on the south west coast of England in the early 1800s. Seems as though they call that area the Jurassic coast. I learned a lot of fossils.

Everyone who attended our book club meeting enjoyed this book. We got into a great discussion about class, evolution and fossil hunting. I have loved archaeology and paleontology since I was a girl so I was really, really getting into this excellent work of historical fiction. I can't say enough about this book, do yourself a favor and read it!
