Mags is writing a book about her new friend Gillian, whom she found playing violin in the woods: "I have tried to make Gillian sound like herself, which is sort of bossy and remote, and not like me, which is friendly and amusing and clever." Gillian needs to find her father so he can send her to audition for a prestigious music school: "I really don't know how I got into all this playing detectives stuff. When Mags said we should try to find Dad, I sort of went along with it. To be fair, it was sort of my idea to start with."
