IN THE SHADOWS

     Vivian’s flight landed two days later in Athens, Greece. It had taken pulling some big-time strings, but Vivian had managed to gain herself a personal invitation by Professor Theologos at the Piraeus Museum. After getting settled in the room at the Wyndham Residence Inn, Vivian took a fifteen-minute tab ride to the Piraeus Museum, arriving just on time for her appointment with Professor Theologos. 


      Walking through the grand entrance, Vivian marveled at the massive statues of Greek gods and goddesses that lined the walls of the museum. Vivian’s heels clicked on the marble tiles as she walked over to the front dress. Right now she was Dr. Vivian Bishop, a researcher from King’s College with an avid interest in the discovered tablets in 2003, a project that was led by Professor Theologos.
