Discover the uplifting story with a uniquely loveable protagonist, perfect for fans of Elizabeth is Missing, Small Pleasures and Dear Mrs Bird. 'A wonderfully warm and involving page-turner.' Clare Chambers'A life-affirming novel, full of surprises' Emma Stonex'Full of unforgettable characters, a beguiling mystery with gorgeous prose' Jennie GodfreyFlorence Butterfield has lived an extraordinary life full of travel, passion and adventure. But, at eighty-seven, she suspects there are no more surprises to come her way. Then, one midsummer's night, something terrible happens - so strange and unexpected that Florence - or Florrie, as her friends call her - is suspicious. Was this really an accident, or is she living alongside a would-be murderer?The only clue is a magenta envelope, discarded earlier that day. And Florrie - cheerfully independent but often overlooked - is the only person determined to uncover the truth. As she does, Florrie finds herself looking back on her own life . . . ...and a long-buried secret becomes ever harder to ignore. Praise for The Night in Question and Susan Fletcher:'[Fletcher's] prose is extraordinarily lyrical . . . and her themes are profound.' Sunday Times'A gifted storyteller' Independent'Fletcher unpeels with delicacy and insight the complex layers of the human heart.' Guardian
