The rumour mill is going WILD lately in Thistlecross Hollow. Is it really true? They say that world renouned author Julian Ashford and his wife, Dr Eliza Ashford are moving into town! This is going to be the most exciting thing to happen to the hollow since Mr Winkles pulled in that 2-foot long catfish last summer! The hollow has literally been buzzing since they saw repairs happening on the old Wren house down by the pond.
The old Wren house belonged to Dr Thaddeus Wren, the old deer GP who shifted out last summer. He was given such an amazing opportunity to work with 'Deers Without Borders', a charity that works on the fringes of the woods, treating those animals that are slightly less fortunate than others, and it was a lifetime dream for Thaddeus, so he just could NOT turn it down.
Ever since, the hollow has been looking for a new doctor to come in and take his place, and Dr Eliza Ashford certainly comes with a LOT of experience behind her. She was the one who single-handedly stopped the outbreak of rabies in nearby Hazel Glen, when it was running wild thru the raccoon population there. Turns out she is looking for a place to settle down to have her pups, and Julian needs a nice quiet house to focus on his next best-seller in the series he is writing about the criminal lawyer alpaca - Percival Sterling.
Oh this is just SO exciting, I can't wait to see what happens next!!
