Three Days from Now
Archaeology Professor Laura Palmer’s shoulders slumped in defeat.
She pushed to her feet then raised her blood-stained hands over her
head, slowly turning to face the armed men surrounding her. It was a true
out of the frying pan and into the fire moment. What she would give for just
one thing to go right today. Today was supposed to be a high point of her
career. The discovery was so monumental, it could rewrite history, and at a
minimum, fill in a lot of blanks that had stumped scholars for centuries.
But instead, everything had gone horribly wrong, and now she stood in
the middle of the desert with blood literally soaking her hands, belonging to
men whom the government here would likely claim she murdered. And just
when she thought she had escaped their clutches, she was once again
surrounded, this time by greater numbers with no hope in hell of escape this
time.

But these men weren’t military. They appeared to be Bedouins. Were
they her enemy? Were they here to kill her, or kidnap her and demand a
ransom be paid for her safe return?
Or were they merely here to help?
Nobody said anything, the tension growing among those who surrounded
her. A camel spat to her left and her head spun toward the sound. She
spotted a group of women holding the reins of half a dozen of the beasts of
burden. She made eye contact with one of the women who smiled at her.
These people might not be her enemy after all. Or they could be fanatics.
There was only one way to find out.
She directed her attention at the man who appeared to be in charge, one
of the oldest there, and the only one not pointing a gun directly at her. She
prayed he spoke Arabic. “My name is Professor Laura Palmer, and I need
your help, otherwise a lot of innocent people are going to die.”
