August 1925
Bedford, Connecticut
Marshall College
It is the beginning of the Fall semester at Marshall College in Bedford, Connecticut where the young, 26 year old, Dr. Henry Jones Jr. visiting from his teaching at London University will be teaching Archaeology 101 only for a semester as a replacement filler for the class since the previous professor was mysteriously murdered. The new temporary professor will be introduced to his class where of course he would meet his new students and eventually get entangled in a plot with a secret group within the college faculty.
I am running through ideas I like and would need some help with story-line I would be playing Jones I need antagonists and protagonists to fill the plot. I was thinking more along the lines that the " secret group" were either masons, cult, or coven that consisted of members of the faculty which killed off the previous Archaeology Professor when he had discovered the group. I am open to more ideas and creativity for a good story that can lead to mystery action adventure and drama.
