What a very special episode featuring award-winning and award nominated author: Susan Fletcher!

The Night in Question by Susan Fletcher is hands-down one of my favorite books of 2024. This contemporary mystery is also a heartfelt exploration of a woman’s life—grief, joy, regret, and resilience all wrapped into one.

In this special episode, Susan and I dive into the story of the remarkable Florence “Florrie” Butterfield, how the book emerged as a hopeful response to the pandemic, and why Susan shines a light on overlooked characters and and the challenges of their lives. We also explore the wisdom and richness of older generations and even get a peek into Susan’s next project.

This is an episode about the power of women and the friendships that sustain us; a moving interview and I’m so grateful to have had the chance to chat with Susan Fletcher —don’t miss it! Thank you Sue, from the bottom of my heart! Reserve books by Susan Fletcher here.
