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.

Having read the first two Robert Galbraith books I was delighted to find this on my local library shelves one morning.
This is the best of the books so far as it really explores the developing relationship between Strike and his assistant Robin.
The "vilan" so to speak, is quite disturbing but brilliantly well written and as usual I didnt see what was going to happen until I arrived at that page.
A great crime thriller novel - well worth a look if you like a crime novel

Straight into the gory details! (Not bedtime reading.) Great characters you can relate to. Soon sucks you in - a gripping page-turner. Good descriptions of places and events. Great, humour, satisfying ending - a very good read. Have sourced the first two books in the series to read.
