CHAPTER 11

Catherine made her way out of the museum. After speaking with her manager, she was looking for Bowen when she ran into an older man who had been lurking around a corner outside the building.

“Oh, I'm sorry!” Startled, she scrambled to pick up her phone.

The man was tall and burly, with leathery skin. His graying brown hair was tied back into a small bun at the base of his skull. His hawk-like eyes caught Catherine's when she stood straight again. It unsettled her.

“It was my fault,” he said with a nod of apology and a polite smile.

“No, I was walking too fast. Excuse me,” she said as she waved. The man just stood still. She felt awkward as she walked away, but that passed when she called Danny and explained everything Bowen had told her. She eventually found Bowen waiting for her on the sidewalk in front of the museum as she finished her argument with Danny.

“What's wrong?” Bowen asked when she reached him. Clearly, he had overheard her frosty tones.
