There can't, she believes, be any more adventures or surprises in a residential home.Yet one midsummer's evening, there's an accident at Babbington Hall - 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 would-be murderer?As she turns detective to try and find out 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, confess. Above all, Florrie learns - through the help of her new friend, Stanhope - that when it comes to living the life you've always dreamed of, it's never too late.
