Some secrets should just stay buried. On the day Tristan Morrow is born her mother goes missing, prompting an investigation that produces no solid leads. Fast forward 15 years, and the Morrow family still doesn't know the truth behind Catherine Morrow’s disappearance. When 15 year old Tristan is required to write a biography on her mother for a school assignment, she learns the truth about her mother’s fate, and is hell-bent upon finding out who was responsible for her death. But when Tristan herself goes missing too, everyone is suspect, even her own father and boyfriend. Set in rural Fox Hollow, PA, Shadow Dancer unravels a web of lies, deceit, madness and corruption. Can investigators crack the case before Tristan meets the same fate as her mother? And who is responsible for the disappearances? There is much uncertainty as the investigation unfolds, but there is one thing that is certain: Tristan Morrow holds the master key to the entire riddle.

HOSTED BY:
Here is Episode Two: JJ Meets Jack.
Good Afternoon Folks! This is JJ Penn from Elkhart Radio 104.9
and I am back on the scene in Fox Hollow and we’re going to see if Jack Morrow,
the lead male character from the new mystery novel, Shadows
of Morrow is willing
to talk to us and answer some of our questions. It looks like he’s in the
pasture over there with some of his workers tending to an injured cow. I’m just
going to mozy on over there, and see what’s up.
JJ: Hello Jack… Mr. Morrow?
Jack turns from the injured sow on the ground, and gives JJ a
glaring look.
Jack: Didn’t you see the sign? No trespassing! Now get gone…
JJ: Jack, I’m JJ Penn from…
Jack gives JJ an incredulous look, and he looks back at Frank
who is gently stroking the cow’s side.
Jack: Hey Frank, this guy thinks I care who he is!
Frank growls in a Scottish brogue at JJ.
Frank: You better get going, boy… This is private property, and
we don’t take kindly to visits from strangers.
JJ: I don’t mean no harm, but people in town….
Jack: People in town talk a lot of crap about stuff they know
nothing about. Now son, I believe I asked you to leave.
JJ tried to step forward, but the path was blocked by several
other cows, grazing in the pasture. They lazily chewed their grass and stared
at JJ. Whenever JJ moved, the cows move closer, effectively creating a barrier
between Jack and JJ. It was as if Jack had paid off his cows.
JJ: Jack, if I could just get a moment of your time!
The cows encroached further mooing loudly. One even went so far
as to lick JJ’s leather jacket. JJ retreated in disgust.
JJ: It licked me!
Jack and Frank stared at JJ as if he had lost his mind.
Jack: Am I seeing things? This joker is still here.
Frank: Maybe we should find out what he wants…
Jack: I have a sick cow to deal with. Forget him. If he’s not
gone in 10 seconds, I’ll have Adam release Ziggy. JJ, still listening intently
heard the name Ziggy, and became more nervous.
JJ: What’s Ziggy?
Jack: Never you mind!
Frank stared at JJ who was still trying to get the licking cow
away, but wasn’t having any luck as he was pinned between an old wooden fence
and the herd of heifers. Frank smacked his tongue over his teeth and gave
Jack a mischievous smirk.
Frank: Want me to take care of him?
JJ’s eyes bugged out of his head.
JJ: I just wanted to ask a few questions. Friendly questions!!
The cow was now licking the side of JJ’s face. JJ’s cringed in
disgust. Jack looked at Frank with a serious face.
Jack: Yeah Frank. You better. I don’t want to have to release
Ziggy.
JJ: No! Don’t release Ziggy! I mean, I don’t know what Ziggy is,
but-
Frank started walking towards JJ. As he did the cows lazily
dispersed, except for the one who had taken a liking to JJ. Frank had a
menacing look on his face; his burly hands curled into massive fists. As JJ was
sure that he was about to get the tar beat out of him, Frank slapped him on the
back forcefully, but playfully.
Frank: We’re only messin’ with ya! We figured you were gonna
come back up here. Tristan told us you was from the radio station.
JJ, eyes wide, all colored removed from his skin, stared at
Frank in disbelief. His back still seared from where Frank had pummeled him.
Jack, who was leaning over the beleaguered sow on the ground, was nearly in
tears from laughing so hard.
Frank: What’s the matter? You can’t take a joke?!
On the horizon, JJ could see someone and something coming
towards them. Frank looked behind him to see who it was.
Frank: Oy! It’s about time. Poor Oscar was seeing angels.
JJ: Oscar?
Frank: The poor beast on the ground. That be Oscar.
Tristan, who was leading an enormous pot belly pig on a leash
towards her father, handed him a syringe as she looked at the cow on the
ground.
Tristan- Poor Oscar….
Jack took the needle and jammed it hard into the cow’s hind
quarter, causing it to groan in protest.
JJ- What did you do that for?! Is it going to die?
Frank looked at JJ as if he had lost his mind entirely.
Frank- Die?! What’s the matter with ye?! He got into the corn
field again, and he’s allergic! That shot saved Oscar’s life!
Tristan and her pot belly pig approached JJ to say hello.
Tristan- JJ! Nice to see you again.
JJ nodded, not in the mood for social interaction any more after
his encounter with Jack and Frank.
Tristan- This here is Ziggy. Say hi, Ziggy.
Ziggy looked up at JJ and snorted loudly. JJ thought the pig
must’ve weighed more than he did; it’s belly scraped the ground as it walked,
and he waddled from side to side.
Tristan- Don’t be afraid, he wouldn’t hurt a fly! He’s just old
and grouchy… and probably hungry.
Suddenly, Ziggy was sniffing at JJ’s feet and digging his teeth
into the laces of his suede Oxfords.
JJ- Hey!
JJ jumped up onto the old wooden fence to get away from the
hungry pig who had chewed right through his laces.
JJ- Oh, no! That’s it! I’m going home. I’ll come back another
day… When you’re back at the house!
Frank and Jack stared at each other as JJ ran back to his car.
Jack- I was just about to answer his questions, too.
Frank- What a feather weight.
Tristan, who was still standing with Ziggy, waved as JJ’s Subaru
kicked up dirt as it sped down the road towards Cavegat Pass.
Tristan- Now look what you did, Ziggy. You scared him off… And
you Daisy (talking to the cow that had taken a liking to JJ)… You nearly licked
his jacket off.
Frank- Think he’ll actually come back?
Jack- Not if Ziggy and Daisy have anything to do with it.
Poor JJ! But don’t worry, he’ll be back next week, and he’ll be
in the kitchen with the feisty and vivacious Bridgette Kilpatrick!
