Three years ago, Dr. Adam George unearthed a hominid lower jaw fragment that dated to 3.5 million years old. Ever since, he’s been hoping to find something even better. The task seems impossible.
Yet, with only a few hours before he’s set to quit for the season, the crew comes upon something strange. The object appears metallic but that’s not possible, the excavation is taking place below the level where the 3.5 million year old find was discovered. Moreover, the object appears to be imbedded into the surrounding bedrock so there is no evidence of disturbance.
In utmost secrecy, the object is brought back from Africa to the United States where the professor begins his analysis. The answers are mind boggling. The item is indeed metallic but of an unknown substance, a material that seems to become translucent when exposed to sunlight.
I really liked the overall concept and the presentation of this story. There were a couple of places where I would have liked a bit more detail or where the action was a little too sudden. Still, definitely worth picking up.
