Now a major BBC drama: The Strike series
When a mysterious package is delivered to Robin Ellacott, she is horrified to discover that it contains a woman's severed leg.
Her boss, private detective Cormoran Strike, is less surprised but no less alarmed. There are four people from his past who he thinks could be responsible - and Strike knows that any one of them is capable of sustained and unspeakable brutality.
With the police focusing on the one suspect Strike is increasingly sure is not the perpetrator, he and Robin take matters into their own hands, and delve into the dark and twisted worlds of the other three men. But as more horrendous acts occur, time is running out for the two of them...
A fiendishly clever mystery with unexpected twists around every corner, Career of Evil is also a gripping story of a man and a woman at a crossroads in their personal and professional lives. You will not be able to put this book down.
*** The latest book in the thrilling Strike series, LETHAL WHITE is out now! ***

Customer Reviews
Good luck putting it down.
This one was a slow burner compared to the first two books. It felt like the whole plot was quite vague for a long time but it feels like Strike and Robin were more fleshed out than before in this one. Genuine twists and I loved every word. I could not put it down to find out what happened next. 10/10
A fantastic read
I stayed up all night to see how the story ends. Great read and narration. Loved it
