Mornings in Two Pan

With a sparkling touch of comedy and a cast of memorable characters, Mornings in Two Pan explores small towns and family secrets-and at the same time celebrates them. Jiggs Woolsey is "a jackrabbit hopping between projects, seeing how much he can mess up," according to his father. Their humorous arguments turn mean-spirited when Jiggs finds an old skull on the land that's been in their family since pioneer days. Jiggs seeks answers about the five generations of men who worked and carved the acres from Oregon's Eagle Cap wilderness. His aging father and the cantankerous old timers of Two Pan, a fizzled out gold community, will teach him-they're not willing to give up their secrets yet.
