I wasn’t expecting anything special since this was book #7 in the series but this was my favorite so far of the Cormoran Strike novels! The plot kept me engaged all the way through and had the perfect mix of suspense, action, mystery, darkness, humor, and a little romantic chemistry. I haven’t read a book in a long time that made me want to keep reading for hours on end and stay up way too late. Why are cults so fascinating?!

Oh my word! As a voracious reader of fiction and having read the others in the series, I know how stories work, but this was so well written that I was genuinely scared for Robin at one point and so relieved when it resolved. Its a long book but every word counts. Possibly the best so far.
