Lethal White is the fourth book in the Cormoran Strike series from the international bestselling author Robert Galbraith.
"I seen a kid killed...He strangled it, up by the horse."
When Billy, a troubled young man, comes to private eye Cormoran Strike's office to ask for his help investigating a crime he thinks he witnessed as a child, Strike is left deeply unsettled. While Billy is obviously mentally distressed, and cannot remember many concrete details, there is something sincere about him and his story. But before Strike can question him further, Billy bolts from his office in a panic.
Trying to get to the bottom of Billy's story, Strike and Robin Ellacott-once his assistant, now a partner in the agency-set off on a twisting trail that leads them through the backstreets of London, into a secretive inner sanctum within Parliament, and to a beautiful but sinister manor house deep in the countryside.
And during this labyrinthine investigation, Strike's own life is far from straightforward: his newfound fame as a private eye means he can no longer operate behind the scenes as he once did. Plus, his relationship with his former assistant is more fraught than it ever has been-Robin is now invaluable to Strike in the business, but their personal relationship is much, much trickier than that.
The most epic Robert Galbraith novel yet, Lethal White is both a gripping mystery and a page-turning next instalment in the ongoing story of Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott.
##罗琳是多讨厌upper class哈哈哈哈哈(哎,读完第四本,又不知道要等几年了
##没有上一本好 期待第五本Cormoran和Robin关系的新发展
##距离引进版上市还有至少半年的时间,不知道我到时候能不能读完(毕竟懒得出奇/2019年3月6日更新:还没读完,我已经在等中文版上市了…
##罗姨渐入佳境,要接阿婆衣钵的节奏
##Like Harry Potter, each book in the series gets longer and longer. Talk about a convoluted plot...
##Audible 听完。今天路过书店才知道这本书这么厚! 哎,这么长的侦探小说不适合用听的~对案情印象不是很深刻,还是喜欢短小精悍的古典推理~罗琳很会讲故事,但这部更像是犯罪冒险小说~
##目前为止案情最复杂的一本 里面几场分手戏写的好赞
##结尾当伏笔一一被呼应,罗斯莫庄成了亲切的金子。文笔是好的,因此600多页读起来也不累。 #这一部才写到2012年,Robin28岁,距离莱斯特城夺冠,英国脱欧还有很长的一段时间。
##继第一部The Cuckoo's Calling后最好的一本。
