The character design for this series is just amazing. Each character is so fleshed out and realistic. You not only know what they look like but their thoughts, plans, insecurities and more. This really adds to the richness of the books. This one in particular is especially deep in plot lines. As in the other novels there is a main case and extra "illustrate the agency is busy" cases. But within the main case are multiple plotlines to follow. Highly recommend.
This was by far the best Strike book yet! I could not put it down! A religious community known as UHC which was the basis of an intense and terrifying cult involved in brainwashing, rape, murder, torture, physical and sexual abuse, and stealing money from millions who believe in their humanitarian causes. Robin going undercover to join the cult… just wow!
Reasons I Recommend:
1) The whole divinity aspect of belief and philosophy and how it centred around martyrs of dead members and idealized suicide was scary and creepy yet believable for people to latch onto
2) Trying to get people out yet those who did escape were too terrified to talk and
3) Finally an end to the drama of Strike’s past and a great promise for the future of this slow burn.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Another cracking story.
Robin has to go undercover in a dangerous and sinister church cult. All turns out to be quite sordid. A very tense read- please can we have Robin in not quite so much danger next time?!

Wow! WTF! I am absolutely not ashamed that I finished this ~960-page book over the weekend pulling an all-nighter.
