Summary
From beloved author Nora Roberts comes the #1 New York Times bestseller about shattering loss and shocking discovery - set in a small town nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains...
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. She must cope with the presence of her irritating - but irresistible - ex-husband, Jake. And when a stranger claims to know a secret about her privileged Boston childhood, she must question her own past as well...

Not notable but enjoyable
I quite disliked the narrator. All voices kinda same, male and female, and often I kept wondering who is talking now. Always breathless, as in angst. oh, come one! Will make a point to miss Ms. Quigley in the future.
The story itself is ok. Nothing notable about it but enjoyable nonetheless.

Story good but storytelling not.
The story was very good. The narrator’s interpretations weren’t. Which spoiled the story as it didn’t give it the depth it needed. It might have been better if she had just read it without voice changes ,as the men’s voices were no good.

Loved the story, but the performance ...
I don't think I would listen to Birthright again, only because I didn't like the performance very much. I listened through it because of the story itself, but I was very tempted numerous times to go and find a hard /Kindle copy and read it myself. The story itself is really beautiful, but I think no justice was done to the characters by the narrator. I got to dread the long s sounds at the end of the words, some abrupt pauses like every word is the last. Eventually, I got used to it, but I think I would listened to it much faster and in longer chunks if it was someone else narrating.
The story itself is really good, but what else to expect from Nora Roberts. It had me smile, it had me feel sad and everything in between. I would be glad to recommend it to someone else- to read!

Fantastic story! Terrible Narration!
The story itself was phenomenal!
But I couldn't listen to it all, because the narration was so awful. The character's voices were hardly distinguishable from each other, which made dialogue difficult to follow. And the lead female voices were ridiculous; Lana'a was breathy like a dodgy Marilyn Monroe impersonation; and Callie's was hard-edged and sarcastic, no matter what she was saying.
Would be much better to just read it yourself!

Brilliant
Just couldn't 'put my phone down' woke up at 06.30 and got up 18.00 with the occasional break. Really well written with good plot, so enjoyable.

Great story!!
I love Nora Roberts’s books, I haven’t come across one I didn’t like yet. The only reason I gave this book a lower rating was due to the narrator, I found her voice a little drawl at times and the characters voices sounded the same so it was hard to figure out who was having a conversation with who. Otherwise the actual storyline was brilliant.

Rattling good yarn
A creative story with believable characters. Nora Roberts has found an award winning formula & sticks to it well. All one expects from her main protagonists; much fun can be found in some of the minor characters.

Got less than five minutes into this
The story seemed to be good but I couldn’t get over the terrible narration. There were pauses in the oddest places and words drawn out so it was hard to follow. Will be downloading this on kindle to read myself.
