“Yes, she says the map has strange markings on it and writing in a language she is not familiar with. I have told her about you and how you helped return Michael’s things. And she has read about your exploits in the newspaper. She was wondering if you would be interested in this. She would be happy to give the papers and old map to you if you wanted them. Her father is ill, and she cannot leave him, so it is of no use to him or her, and there is no other family alive.”

There was silence as I sat there, my mind going a mile a minute.

“What should I tell her?” Lilian finally asked.

“Tell her I would be very interested in them and can make arrangements to pick the box up at a time that is convenient for her.”

“Good, I was hoping you would say that. I know she will be pleased.”

“You can give her this number if she wants to speak with me directly, or I would be happy to have you as my intermediary if she would feel more comfortable with that.”

“I will call her tomorrow and pass along your information; thank you, Dr. Burnett.”

“You are quite welcome, Lilian. I look forward to hearing from you soon.”

The call ended, and it took all of my willpower to keep my mind from racing.

About the Author

A retired college administrator, Hep Aldridge is a certified scuba diver, cave diver and amateur archaeologist whose main area of interest is Pre-Columbian cultures of the Americas. He has led or been part of archaeological expeditions to Mexico and Honduras, making discoveries that have been reported in National Geographic Magazine.

Hep’s related interest in space, and space exploration and “things unknown” was fueled by his father who worked for NASA. While living in New Mexico, he began to question the many strange and unexplained things he saw in the night sky in the mid 60’s, and also developed an interest in lost treasure that has stayed with him his whole life.

The combination of these diverse interests led to the genesis of the Risky Business Chronicles, Book One, his first novel of a three part series.

Hep is an Air Force veteran and resides on Florida’s Space Coast.
