The Running Grave

A Cormoran Strike Novel

De: Robert Galbraith

Narrado por: Robert Glenister

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.

Terrific story!

So much better than The Ink Black Heart. While the plot revolving around a cult figure is not new, Rowling’s imagination and impeccable pacing makes this an exciting addition to this series.

I was dismayed with the incorrect pronunciation of the I Ching. I did appreciate the shorter epigraphs but found it cringeworthy and jarring hearing throughout 34 hours plus of “I” pronounced as “eye” instead of “ee”, as a previous reviewer noted. How can such a major narration error happen again in a Rowling audio production?

Another excellent story

These books may be a little long but the story never disappoints. And the narrator is excellent.

Brilliant characterization, satisfying plot complexity

However one rates Rowling’s personal cancelability, her writing remains entertaining and masterful! Her choice to focus on cults is timely and timeless. Cheers for revealing the way that “normal” people can gradually become indoctrinated and fall prey to manipulation, and the trauma that results, even after the acute threats are removed.

Best Yet

This book was phenomenal. Easiest to follow and remember each character’s importance. The ending was a stunner!!! Cannot wait for the next in the series. I need it to be released like tomorrow!!! Thank you JK Rowling for giving us another series with characters to relate to, love and cherish.

Wow… just wowwww

I well worth the year wait… absolutely a great read. The books just get better and better… I was on such an emotional roller coaster. And that ending, I literally screamed out loud. I am very impatiently waiting for the next installment!
