About
For readers of “The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry” and “The Hundred-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared”, comes this unforgettable novel about an eighty-seven-year-old woman on a quest for big answers and big adventures.
Eighty-seven-year-old Florrie Butterfield knows she has squeezed the very most out of life. There surely can't, she believes, be any more adventures or surprises left in store for her, especially now that she is wheelchair-bound and residing in a quiet residential home. Yet one midsummer's evening, there's an accident at Babbington Hall-one so shocking and strange that Florrie grows suspicious. Is this really an accident? Or is she being lied to? Is she, in fact, living amongst a would-be murderer?
In her efforts to learn the truth, Florrie is forced to look back on her own life, with all its passions, adventures, romances and regrets-and she must confront her own bloody secret and, at last, confess. Above all, Florrie learns-through the help of her new friend, Stanhope-that you're never too old to find the life you've always dreamed of.
