Wilson is a new inspector who arrives in the town. He is priggish and socially inept, and hides his passion for poetry for fear of ostracism from his colleagues. He and Louise strike up a friendship, which Wilson mistakes for love. He seems to get in the way of Louise's relationship with Scobie. Check this summary out,
