This one is the best of the series. Although quite long, I wasnt bored for a moment reading it. Very good plot and story. And this time I guessed it tight who might be the killer... well, partially.

I love the Cormoran Strike series, and this is a very good addition. It's not quite as good as the first three; for one thing, this one goes on and on about Strike's stump and the amount of pain he is in. This is not relevant to anything and just gets tiresome. This is the reward of inventing a main character with such an unusual injury. It's also tiresome that for the third time
SpoilerRobin gets assaulted by the bad guy.
Time to think of something new.

Reread February 2020; my original review stands.
