Summary: A novel blending fact and fiction and set in 19th century Lyme Regis, the seaside town that is the locale for both "The French Lieutenant's woman" and Jane Austen's "Persuasion". Forty years before the publication of "The Origin of species", Mary Anning made many important paleontological finds in the soft stone of the cliffs. She also encountered Henry de la Beche, the son of a gentry family, who had a passion for drawing the landscapes and fossils of the area.
