Unrequited love tragic endings and buried treasure weave through the colorful history of Shadow Ranch. Meet Bob. You as Nancy Drew must depend on him to carry you safely wherever you go. Together you'll cover a lot of territory. There's no grocery store here -- the food on this working ranch comes from vegetable gardens and chicken coops. Everyone needs to pitch in -- even sleuths like Nancy. The ranch kitchen is Shorty's territory but he's depending on you. He says he needs your help; in reality he just likes having someone to talk to. Product Highlights Here’s who you'll meet at Shadow Ranch: Dave Gregory Dave is the ranch foreman. Always polite somewhat shy Dave is a man of frustratingly few words. When he does speak he’s all-business. He is truly a “modern” cowboy equal parts ESPN MTV and the Outdoor Channel. He is not above trying to use his looks to charm his way out of awkward situations. Tex Britten Tex the forty-something head wrangler is an old-fashioned cowpoke. His weathered face and cynical attitude reflect the fact that he feels much more at home with horses and cattle than with humans. He’s a terrible conversationalist (his favorite word is “nope”) and he not-so-secretly enjoys putting  Nancy in situations that he thinks she can’t handle. Shorty Thurmond The ranch cook Shorty is more talkative than the other two ranch hands combined. In his late thirties he loves to gossip and for that reason loves having  Nancy around. Because he also loves to cook and takes great pride in the food he serves the only thing that truly riles him is criticism of one of his creations. An admitted opportunist he’s always looking for ways to get rich quick but as yet he hasn’t found one. Mary Yazzie This single woman in her early forties is part Native American and runs a store (or “tourist trap” as Ed Rawley calls it) on land that is adjacent to Shadow Ranch. Mary knows all about the history of the area especially as it pertains to the ancient Puebloans who inhabited the nearby cliff dwellings. When Nancy ultimately discovers her big secret Mary is almost relieved; being deceitful is not in her nature -- or is it? Product Features All new look!  Larger game window brings Shadow Ranch alive.
