The Adventures of Mary Darling by Pat Murphy

I have just finished reading Pat Murphy's new novel, The Adventures of Mary Darling. It is a romp. Or, rather, it is two romps, one at the beginning and the other at the end. In the middle is a thick slab of the cruelties of the Victorian era. All carefully garnished to make a romp-and-misery sandwich.

In brief, when Peter Pan comes to Kensington, London, to steal away Wendy and her broth
