In answer to a question you asked a long time ago, she writes, and so begins a letter that calls up a shared past both women have preferred to forget. Without knowing if her friend, Butterfly, is even alive or dead, she writes night after night – a letter of friendship that turns into something more revealing and recriminating. By turns a belated outlet of rage, an act of self-defence, and an offering of forgiveness, the letter revisits a betrayal that happened a decade and a half  before, and dissects what is left of a friendship  caught between the forces of hatred and love.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43697377804332,"sku":"9780099597667","price":9.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9780099597667_56956f20-92dd-4044-83f7-df9932e5dd7a.jpg?v=1759675524","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9780099597667","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
