A delightfully feel-good new novel from the No. 1 bestseller and R&J selected author of Away With the Penguins. Perfect for fans of uplifting fiction from authors such as Ruth Hogan and Cathy Bramley. Meet the heroine everyone' s talking about . . . Fiercely resilient and impeccably dressed, Veronica McCreedy has lived an incredible 87 years. Most of them alone, in her huge house by the sea. But Veronica has recently discovered a late-life love for family and friendship, adventure and wildlife. More specifically, a love for penguins!And so when she' s invited to co-present a wildlife documentary, far away in the southern hemisphere, she jumps at the chance. Even though it will put her in the spotlight, just when she thought she would soon fade into the wings. Perhaps it' s never too late to shine?
This year' s Eleanor Oliphant . . . Funny, bittersweet and wholly original. * Daily Express * A glorious, life-affirming story. I read it in a day. I' m going to buy it for so many people this year! * Clare Mackintosh * I love this gorgeous book. Unflinching, stubborn, funny and moving, Veronica is an unlikely heroine who will sneak in and capture your heart. * Trisha Ashley * A touching, uplifting tale. * Jo Wiley, Radio 2 Book Club *
