When frantic, dishevelled Edie Ledwell appears in the office begging to speak to her, private detective Robin Ellacott doesn't know quite what to make of the situation. The co-creator of a popular cartoon, The Ink Black Heart, Edie is being persecuted by a mysterious online figure who goes by the pseudonym of Anomie. Edie is desperate to uncover Anomie's true identity.
Robin decides that the agency can't help with this - and thinks nothing more of it until a few days later, when she reads the shocking news that Edie has been tasered and then murdered in Highgate Cemetery, the location of The Ink Black Heart.
Robin and her business partner Cormoran Strike become drawn into the quest to uncover Anomie's true identity. But with a complex web of online aliases, business interests and family conflicts to navigate, Strike and Robin find themselves embroiled in a case that stretches their powers of deduction to the limits - and which threatens them in new and horrifying ways . . .
A gripping, fiendishly clever mystery, The Ink Black Heart is a true tour-de-force.
Kundenrezensionen
Surpassing Agatha Christie as the Queen of Crime writing
Brilliant story telling, incredible character development and fabulous entertainment
Long and explicit
While certainly the storyline is fitting for today with everyone on Twitter and gaming, the actual messages make this a tough read. Not only long (and boring) the language is explicit and extremely aggressive. Not recommended for the faint hearted. There should be a warning.
However, the story is well constructed, the characters intriguingly facetted and descriptions are highly detailed, allowing a clear picture in the reader’s mind. Last few chapters finally had the thrilling pace that deserved to be called crime novel.
