Fri, 20 Sep 2019 15:13:19 GMT

Jacqueline St. James is new in town. Not an easy thing to be, in a town so small you might walk right through someone and out the other side. No way to know the impact until after it happened. Sometimes - you just have to get some advice. (Or - Jack St. James gets her cards read). 

This mini episode stars Kira Apple as Jack, with Dallas Mugno as Duncan. It was written and edited by Sarah Kolb.  You have her to blame for the wildly inaccurate information about Tarot readings.
