Chapter 4

Daniel fished in the thick drawer of his 19thcentury oak Pollard desk and withdrew a pad of paper and pencil. With the image of the golden monkey still sharp in his mind, he set about sketching the engraving carved into the medallion. Though his limited artistic skills kept any intricate design at bay, he managed the inset of the butterfly topped with the ruby-red circle. Satisfied, he began searching an online, scholarly database for relics that might offer him a clue to his latest dream’s puzzle.
