Chapter 154

“I think we’re going to need to go further back than what we have,” Sasha said, after they’d spent some more time on the town’s history. “Nate, can you go up to the desk and see if they have anything that pre-dates the town’s founding?”

“Gladly,” Nathan said, taking a long gulp of coffee before getting up, since he wouldn’t be able to bring it with him. He gave Sasha a wink, noticing how close Alex was leaning over Jim as she explained a little of what she had discovered so far. It wasn’t overeager or very purposeful flirting, just very telling body language.

Leaving the study room, Nathan headed left. Having caught the head librarian giving Alex that glare earlier, he decided to try out the Help Desk in the middle of the library instead. It appeared unoccupied as he approached but he could have sworn someone had been there earlier. There was a little bell on the counter so Nathan gave it a ding.
