The dig

I definitely enjoyed this book. I listened to it in the audiobook format. I enjoyed learning about what became the Sutton Hoo dig. The character development was wonderful. The conflict that ensues when the professionals take over the dig gave the novel more depth and I imagined what it would be like for Mrs. Pretty to not be able to control what was happening on her land and for Mr. Brown to be pushed to the side when he did the work and unearthed to treasure within. I liked everything about this book and found the real life archeological dig to be very interesting. It's something I never would have know about without finding this book.
