According to Confucius, “an educated woman is a worthless woman,” but Tan Yunxian—born into an elite family, yet haunted by death, separations, and loneliness—is being raised by her grandparents to be of use. Her grandmother is one of only a handful of female doctors in China, and she teaches Yunxian the pillars of Chinese medicine, the Four Examinations—looking, listening, touching, and asking—something a man can never do with a female patient.

An amazing listen!
Revisado: 07-06-23
You should definitely read this book. It is so well written and the characters come alive. I learned much about the lives of women in 15th and 16th century China. You are transported to the time of foot binding and concubines. Very highly recommended! The reader brought the characters to life. I could not stop listening!

His past is filled with secrets and deeds he would rather leave deeply buried. However, when his life unexpectedly entwines with Alaina's, he soon discovers they share more than a desire to catch a murderer.

An Entertaining Listen
Revisado: 07-16-16
I loved listening to Alaina Claiborne. The story had me hooked from the very beginning. The author did a wonderful job bringing the characters to life for me. Hopefully Book 2, BLACKWOOD CROSSING and Book 3, CLAYTON'S HONOR will be on audible soon. I would love to listen to the rest of the series.

Great Romance for a Summer Listen
Revisado: 06-22-15
What an intriguing story that certainly kept my interest with all of the twists and turns. A well-written romance that was perfect for a summer listen. The reader was very, very good. I will definitely read more books by Lucinda Brant and hope to start listening to the sequel, Salt Redux, very soon. Need to find out what happens to the Earl and his family. I also want to search out more books read b Marian Hussey.

A very good listen except for a few scenes
Revisado: 10-16-13
This was a very good listen. I would have given it a 5 except for the shocking change in writing style describing Belle's interactions with the character Daniel Kileya and two others. They were totally out of context with the style of the rest of the story and very jarring when you arrive at those parts when listening to the book. If these scenes were written in the style of the rest of the book, I would highly recommend it without condition. Both readers were excellent. I am definitely going to read and/or listen to more books by this author.

PEN-Faulkner Award-winning author T. Coraghessan Boyle weaves together the stories of two families in Southern California: one affluent, the other destitute. As Boyle creates a counterpoint of personal needs, civic responsibility, and social custom, each family's quest for the American Dream fuels deep fear and anger that ultimately lead to a perilous confrontation.
