✦ Synopsis

2008
Review"Stratton's War should certainly swell the ranks of Laura Wilson aficianados" (CRIME TIME)
'Totally deserving of the 2008 Crime Writers Association / Ellis Peters Historical Award, it's well researched, well written and brilliantly plotted.' (SAINSBURYS MAGAZINE)
'Wilson has established a reputation for stylish psychological crime; the first in her series featuring decent copper Stratton is enriched with warmth and humour as well.' (GUARDIAN)
A breathtakingly good novel that weaves credible fiction onto fact, brilliantly evoking wartime London.' (HUDDERSFIELD DAILY EXAMINER) Heather O'Donaghue, TLS'Laura Wilson's earlier novel The Lover, set in wartime London, was rightly praised for its evocation of place and period, and she is equally successful with Stratton's War. This is not simply a question of period detail ... it is deep in the language of the novel, in the speech of the characters, even in the narrative voice. Everything sounds authentic.'
