Description

In this New York Times bestselling installment of the "outrageously entertaining" Strike series (Financial Times), detective duo Cormoran and Robin must rescue a man ensnared in the trap of a dangerous cult.​
Private Detective Cormoran Strike is contacted by a worried father whose son, Will, has gone to join a religious cult in the depths of the Norfolk countryside. 

The Universal Humanitarian Church is, on the surface, a peaceable organization that campaigns for a better world. Yet Strike discovers that beneath the surface there are deeply sinister undertones, and unexplained deaths. 

In order to try to rescue Will, Strike's business partner, Robin Ellacott, decides to infiltrate the cult, and she travels to Norfolk to live incognito among its members. But in doing so, she is unprepared for the dangers that await her there or for the toll it will take on her. . .

Utterly page-turning, The Running Grave moves Strike's and Robin's story forward in this epic, unforgettable seventh installment of the series.

    I was on the edge of my seat for at least half of the book! Galbraith really knows how to draw you in and keep you in suspense. I’ve read all of the Cormoran Strike books, and this one is the best. I can’t wait for the next one! I do have to say, though, I would have loved to have had a glossary of the characters, because sometimes it is difficult to remember who’s who in this book. There are a ton of names, and I definitely had to utilize the search function in this ebook!
  • Love them all!!

    Where Harry Potter captivated me as a child and turned me into an avid reader for life her new series has been rivetingly addicting but this newest is simply the best one yet! Kept me guessing till the last chapter which is difficult to do. I simply couldn’t put it down!

    How does the title relate to the story? Who’s Kevin? Despite those questions, I was so absorbed in this book that I could hardly stop reading. I cared about the characters. The plot twists kept me guessing. Human nature is portrayed at its worst, its best, and its most human. I highly recommend this book.
  • Keeps getting better.

    A hard story to tell, yet a believable one. I was so worried about Robin and so glad it resolved fairly soon in the story. Cormoran Strike is one of those characters who becomes part of you and makes you want to believe people like him exist. Robin, too finds a place deep in your heart. The story was so compelling, hard to read at times, yet the characters were so well written, the events so believable I found myself wanting to scream out at the injustice and even at times thinking these people were so weak yet I could see how they were manipulated, how it could happen to just about anyone. It was wrapped up completely with a surprise I didn’t see coming. Strike is brilliant. With the ending, anxiously awaiting the next book.
