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...
Career of Evil is the third in the highly acclaimed series
featuring private detective Cormoran Strike and his assistant Robin
Ellacott. A fiendishly clever mystery with unexpected twists around
every corner, itis also a gripping story of a man and a woman at a
crossroads in their personal and professional lives.
