This is a wonderful series, and this particular book is particlarly good. If you haven't read Lindsey Chamberlain than I suggest that you do. She's a wonderfully real and likeable heroine. In this book Ms. Connor melds the sixteenth century with the current century seamlessly. Lindsey is involved in an archeological dig of a sixteenth century Spanish ship that went down off the coast of Georgia. Her and her crew are challenged with the exciting job of unearthing an old, old story, and while they do that they unearth a sixteenth century murder. And it seems that murders are happening in around the site as well. Of course Lindsey cannot rest until she uncovers the truth. These books are real page-turners, and the archeological information that comes out is incredible. Ms. Connor is a professional archeologist, and her knowledge is very extensive. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

Lindsey arrives at the cofferdam (yes, I'm going to try and write that word in my review as many times as I can, it's a totally cool thing as well as a cool word, cofferdam, cofferdam). Anyway, she's there to help with the analysis of the bones that have been found with the Spanish galleon ship that is being unearthed within the cofferdam (which is basically two circles of metal with sand in between them and pumps in the middle to keep out the leakage, I love when I learn something while reading a book).
It was a good novel, we get introduced to some new characters as well as the students and colleagues that are from the previous books. One of my favorites is Korey whose role is as a conservator of the items and bones that the rest of the archaeological crew find.
There are a couple of character driven subplots which are interesting, as is the ending. And personally I'm okay with all the trouble that Lindsey gets into, because it makes for great novels for sure. ( )
