About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.

Florence 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 Florrie 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 turns detective, Florrie finds herself looking back on her own life...and a long-buried secret, traced in faded scars across her knuckles, becomes ever harder to ignore.

Prize-winning author Susan Fletcher's The Night in Question is an absorbing and uplifting whodunnit with a uniquely loveable protagonist at its heart.

An amazing story of the happenings in a residential home.

Not normally my type of genre but some how it held me and I did enjoy it even though it was a little flowery

Absolutely glorious

Deeply moving. Enthralling , exciting , poignant, absorbing I couldn’t stop listening. The narration does full justice to the characterisation I feel bereft now I’ve finished listening but Florrie will live on in my heart.

So sorry, I couldn't stand this

I found the style of writing so very, very irritating. The constant listing of descriptions had me shouting at the reader "just get on with it". The book could have been half the length if she hadn't kept listing descriptions like someone who didn't quite know if you would understand what is being said or like a teacher would explain something in detail to a somewhat slow pupil or an author who just loved her pretty descriptions (😉). It just wasn't for me.
