When Evelyn's husband is found dead, wearing his best suit, with a diamond ring in his pocket that doesn't fit her and a letter to another woman, Evelyn decides to find the other woman - and so begins a very unusual holiday.
It's never too late to change the habits of a lifetime...
Evelyn Pringle isn't the sort to make rash decisions. Or any decisions, really - she's always left that sort of thing up to her husband. But he's been found dead, wearing his best suit, with a diamond ring in his pocket that doesn't fit her. When Evelyn finds a letter addressed to a woman on the Isle of Wight, she decides to deliver it. By hand.
So begins a very unusual holiday, and an adventure no one could have predicted - least of all Evelyn herself. With the help of some unexpected new friends, and a little effort on her part, Evelyn discovers that it's never too late to have a second chance at life and forge friendships that are well-worth living for.
The Second Chance Holiday Club is a heartwarming and funny later-life uplit for fans of Judy Leigh, Hazel Prior and Maddie Please.
