| Abstract: | If you have already encountered Laura Wilson's DI Stratton detective novels, then you'll know that she writes excellent mystery novels with a strong sense of place, era and character, and a humane voice that's perhaps too rare in crime fiction. Her stand-alone novel The Wrong Girl amply confirms these gifts. The chief dramatis personae are: Dan, a former roadie for the 1960s band Weather Ship Tango Delta, who's found dead on his bed one day; his sister, Janice, now in her sixties, who had a baby when just a slip of a girl and was pressured into giving her up for adoption; Suzie, Janice's now grown-up daughter whom Janice has never met but who's been lodging with Dan in the Norfolk village of Repshall; Molly, Suzie's nine-year-old daughter; Joe, former lead singer of Weather Ship, former lover of Janice, and apparently an acid casualty; and Magic Malc, a creepy old hippie who haunts the woods outside Repshall.
