In the quiet heart of southwestern Wyoming, a small town clings
to its small-town ways. But when a sudden boom brings big money and
bigger secrets, what’s left of the town they thought they knew?
As
usual, I want to than Malady for beta reading, and helping edit.
I'd
also like to thank those who comment for their part in beta reading

Chapter 22
Trevor
hadn’t dared open the Ziplocked notebook. It sat on the passenger
seat as he scrolled through university websites in search of a
conservator. Most places were distant, busy, or too formal. Then he
found Professor Rory MacTavish—an ancient text expert, and friend
at CU Denver, with a knack for bookbinding on the side.
They
had met years ago at a TED talk. Fran had gone with him. Of course
at that time, they’d been pre-college, and really weren’t sure
what they wanted to focus on.
Trevor had been interested in old
religious literature preservation, and Fran (Frank at the time) had
accompanied him to the talk. They both found themselves fascinated
by some of the ideas that MacTavish had, and eagerly listened to
every seminar he spoke at. They spoke to him after his last seminar
and developed a kind of rapport.
