About this ebook

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.

I've enjoyed the series overall but found this book to be very long and meandering. There were so many characters on the periphery, I found it hard to keep track of them all and many added very little to the story. Even the chocolate brands left at the rock seemed formulaic. Lots of awful people doing lots of horrid things....

Found it difficult to maintain an interest. Completely lacking the page-turner excitement of the early books in the series. Seems like the Strike / Ellacott series has run it's course and is out of steam.

Couldn't stop reading. Didn't want to stop reading it. And when I was done I was both greatly disappointed and very satisfied. 😊
