Lethal White

Lethal White by Robert Galbraith plunges readers into a thrilling mystery as private investigator Cormoran Strike faces one of his most challenging cases yet. A mentally troubled young man, Billy Knight, arrives at Strike's office, distressed and erratic, seeking help for a crime he believes he witnessed as a child. Although Billy's memories are fragmented and uncertain, his evident sincerity and fear strike a chord with Strike. Before the detective can delve deeper, Billy flees, leaving behind more questions than answers.

Determined to uncover the truth behind Billy's cryptic tale, Strike, joined by his loyal partner Robin Ellacott, embarks on a complex investigation. Their quest takes them through the shadowy backstreets of London, into the enigmatic corridors of Parliament, and from the urban sprawl to a haunting manor house nestled in the countryside. With every clue they uncover, the web of deceit becomes more tangled.

Meanwhile, Strike grapples with the consequences of his growing celebrity. His once under-the-radar operations are now conducted under public scrutiny, complicating matters significantly. Moreover, his professional relationship with Robin is tested by their unresolved personal tension, adding a layer of emotional depth to their partnership.

Boasting elements of political intrigue, family secrets, and a rich tapestry of characters, Lethal White is the most expansive Cormoran Strike novel yet. Galbraith masterfully blends gripping mystery with an evolving narrative, further developing the complex dynamic between Strike and Robin. The result is a page-turner that will satisfy both new readers and long-time fans of the series.

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.
