"Career of Evil is the third--and best--novel in the engaging
Cormoran Strike private detective series. . . . [Galbraith has]
invented a serial killer for the ages, one who chills us from the
book's grim but riveting opening. . . . This perfectly paced
mystery is packed with surprises, all of which play out with
flawless crime-fiction logic."--Jocelyn McClurg, USA Today (4/4
stars)
"Another triumph . . . Its darkness is mitigated by its sparkling
protagonists."--Kim Hubbard, People
"Hugely entertaining . . . This gifted storyteller has taken full
command of the new turf. . . . Career of Evil succeeds powerfully
on its own terms."--Lloyd Sachs, Chicago Tribune
"Pure pleasure. . . . That's what makes these novels so good: They
are clever, tightly plotted mysteries with all of the most
pleasurable elements of the genre (good guy, bad guy, clues,
twists, murder!), but with stunning emotional and moral
shading."--Annalisa Quinn, NPR
"Strike and Robin are just as magnetic as ever."--Michiko Kakutani,
New York Times
