Another quick short story, which always seem quite over the top plot wise, but are usually good fun

This is a pretty important mini-story in this series as it sees the return of two historians who have been missing and presumed dead for the last 10 years.
While I genuinely loved the story, I did have a hard time believing that NO ONE else thought to do what Max did in their search for the lost pair. 10 years and a whole lot of extremely intelligent historians, IT people and the Director himself, and not a single person thought to check the jump AFTER Jerusalem?
Not to mention they’re tagged. St. Mary’s employees are traceable whether dead or alive thanks to the tag under their skin. If they weren’t picking up the tags in that location, then wouldn’t that mean they weren’t there?
Anyway, logic aside, if you just read the story for what it is, a light (but important!) filler between books 4 and 5, then it’s a touching and sweet story, with some humor thrown in. I just love this series, so while I found it hard to believe no one else thought to check the Pod Archive, I still enjoyed the story and DEFINITELY recommend it be read in order!

These shirt stories are a fun interlude in the St Mary's story and thus one doesn't disappoint.
