(3rd in Cormoran Strike series)

Compared to the two prior novels in this series,  Career of Evil includes some pretty intense and graphic violence, almost entirely against women and children  – sexual violence and it’s by serial psychopathic personalities and pedophiles.  NOT my favorite kind of crime novel.

That said,  I actually finished it (stayed up very late finishing it!)  because … well … I do so love Cormoran Strike and his assistant Robin Ellacott.  And Rowling/Galbraith is a very good writer.  Had it not been for those that combination I would’ve scratched this one quick.   But the way Cormoran and Robin met and solved the mystery of the super-model’s death in the first novel,  The Cuckoo’s Calling,  enchanted me.  And then the pair went on to solve the literary mystery of  The Silkworm – that was an A+.   >>>>MORE>>>>
