Mrs Morris Changes Lanes — Debbie Young

After 30 years in a joyless marriage and a dead-end job, Juliet Morris is resigned to a humdrum life in her quiet corner of the Cotswolds, until a chance encounter at a dental appointment reminds her of what might have been. Craving an afternoon alone to think, Juliet accepts the offer of an unusual loan car whose satnav seems to have a mind of its own. Following its directions, she begins a remarkable journey of second chances and fresh hopes, leading to surprising destinations. A delightful and original romantic comedy, full of Debbie Young's renowned humour and optimism, with a touch of magical realism. By the author of the Sophie Sayers Village Mysteries and the Staffroom at St Bride's series of school stories for grown-ups. For books in both series, Debbie Young has been shortlisted for the Selfies Award for Best Independently Published Fiction in the UK. (2020 for Secrets at St Bride's and 2021 for Murder Lost and Found).
