![]() ![]() One day, a man walks into their life claiming that he is Patrick, the long-lost Ashby he says that he didn’t commit suicide but instead ran away, assumed the name of Brat Farrar and spent the last eight years in America where he worked on horse ranches. This second tragedy particularly surprised the family because Patrick was such a sweet and well-adjusted boy whom no one suspected was on the brink of taking his own life. Soon after the parents’ death, Simon’s twin brother committed suicide by throwing himself off of a cliff. The reason Aunt Bee has had to take over as parent for her three nieces and her nephew is that their parents died in a tragic airplane crash when Jane and Ruth were only a few months old. ![]() ![]() Although to visit them for afternoon tea, one would believe that this is a happy and well-adjusted family, the Ashby’s have suffered some terrible tragedies. Bee supervises and runs the horse estate with the help of her niece Elenor and nephew Simon who are young adults. Aunt Bee, the matriarch of the family, oversees the care of her ten-year-old nieces Jane and Ruth. The current family members who inhabit the estate are best known for their stables of beautiful horses. The Ashby family has maintained their estate in the south of England for many generations. ![]()
