While Billy is obviously mentally distressed, and cannot remember many concrete details, there is something sincere about him and his story. But before Strike can question him further, Billy bolts from his office in a panic.Trying to get to the bottom of Billy's story, Strike and Robin Ellacott - once his assistant, now a partner in the agency - set off on a twisting trail that leads them through the backstreets of London, into a secretive inner sanctum within Parliament, and to a beautiful but sinister manor house deep in the countryside.And during this labyrinthine investigation, Strike's own life is far from straightforward: his newfound fame as a private eye means he can no longer operate behind the scenes as he once did. Plus, his relationship with his former assistant is more fraught than it ever has been - Robin is now invaluable to Strike in the business, but their personal relationship is much, much more tricky than that . . .Epic and enthralling, Lethal White is the gripping fourth instalment in the ongoing story of Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott. -----PRAISE FOR THE STRIKE SERIES: 'One of the most unique and compelling detectives I've come across in years' MARK BILLINGHAM'The work of a master storyteller' DAILY TELEGRAPH'Unputdownable. . .

"Very slow moving and convoluted story, far-fetched plot and unsympathetic characters. Cormoran and Robin are the people I want to hear about. More Cormoran and Robin, please. Fewer politicians and platforms."

"I'll come back to this one day."

"As always, love this series. So so detailed and the writing is so well done. Easy to get mixed up in all the details though so you have to pay attention. A little dissapointed at one of the ending reveals about the little girl/boy that was murdered which ended up being a horse that was killed. The tv show did a good job of re ordering events that happen in the book to make it make more sense. But still loved it. "

"Although this one was a little more predictable than the rest of the series, this was my favourite Cormoran Strike novel to date. Lots of red herrings, but my gut was right in the end. Looking forward to the fifth book next. "

"I LOVE the characters and the setting. I tear through every book in this series in days and then can’t wait for the next one. "

"Sort of a 3.75. For some reason, I could not get into this one like I hoped I would. I think my reading of it was too disjointed and I should have just sat down and read it in longer chunks of time. Unfortunately, time is one thing I seem to be lacking these days! Still, love the characters and as always, will be looking forward to the next installment. (Probably an unenlightened opinion here, but I did get a little tired of being beaten over the head by the fact that Stike's leg is bad and causes him great pain.)"

"This is book 4 or 4 (so far? 🤞🏻) Also Robert Galbraith is actually JK Rowling if you didn’t know!! 🤩"
Kelly Morris
"Once again Galbraith, a.k.a, J.K. Rowling, kept me guessing and kept me interested in the lives of her main characters Comoran Strike and Robin Ellacott! Compared to the other books in the series, it seemed a little long - but I was involved with multiple work library projects, and reading other books this past month as well - which may contribute to it feeling longer to me."
