Oh wow! All I was thinking was dinosaur bone, but you built that suspense quite well. I had that perfect amount of frustration with the museum visitors as I internally shouted, “WHY ARE THEY ACTING SO WEIRD?!”

Thanks for this story, and for writi BFF with us this month!

I like how you dealt with that one, especially with what I've been reading as well as watching on you tube lately. Got to watch those men in black.

Mark and Jill should count themselves lucky the spooks didn't go after them too. They seem like the side characters who get killed as part of a cover up in the conspiracy thriller.

Indeed! But whose going to believe a museum is destroying history? That’s mad. Mark and Jill better not dig too deep, though...
