Winner of the Nebula Award: "A lovely and literate exploration of
the dark moment where myth and science meet" (Samuel R. Delany).
When night falls over the Yucatan, the archaeologists lay down
their tools. But while her colleagues relax, Elizabeth Butler
searches for shadows. A famous scientist with a reputation for
eccentricity, she carries a strange secret. Where others see
nothing but dirt and bones and fragments of pottery, Elizabeth sees
shades of the men and women who walked this ground thousands of
years before. She can speak to the past--and the past is beginning
to speak back. As Elizabeth communes with ghosts, the daughter she
abandoned flies to Mexico hoping for a reunion. She finds a mother
embroiled in the supernatural, on a quest for the true reason for
the Mayans' disappearance. To dig up the truth, the archaeologist
who talks to the dead must learn a far more difficult skill:
speaking to her daughter.
