A lyrical and emotionally engaging novel infused with mystery and wisdom about love, friendship, and the power of forgiveness.

Florrie Butterfield—eighty-seven, one-legged, and of cheerful disposition—believes there can’t be any more adventures or surprises in life to experience. Yet one midsummer’s evening, there’s an accident at Babbington Hall—the adult residence where she lives—so shocking and strange that Florrie is suspicious; is this really an accident? Or is she being lied to? Is she, in fact, living alongside a potential murderer? In her efforts to learn the truth, Florrie is forced to look back on her own life, with all its passions and regrets; she must confront her own bloody secret—and, at last, forgive herself. Above all, Florrie learns, through the help of her new friend, Stanhope, that you’re never too old to have the life you’ve always dreamed of. When it comes to love, it’s never too late.

Readers of moving fiction about late-in-life second chances such as Fredrik Backman’s A Man Called Ove and Rachel Joyce’s The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry will love this un-putdownable book.

Praise for The Night in Question

I’m naturally drawn to ornery so Florrie is my new favorite character! After eighty-seven years of life, she believes she has seen it all and done it all. And she doesn’t give a care what anyone thinks. Go Florrie!

When faced with a tragedy in the retirement facility she calls home, she settles in to solve the mystery. Along the way, Florrie learns that sometimes you must look back to move on. Both heartwarming and heartbreaking, this story is not one to miss. You’re never too old to live – a lesson we can all learn, at any age. I need this to become a movie. Soon. I highly recommend and would most definitely read more by this author.
