About the book
In the epic fifth installment in this ‘compulsively readable’ (People) series, Galbraith''s ‘irresistible hero and heroine’ (USA Today) take on the decades-old cold case of a missing doctor, one which may be their grisliest yet.
During a visit to his family in Cornwall, Private Detective Cormoran Strike is approached by a woman seeking help in finding her missing mother, Margot Bamborough, who disappeared under mysterious circumstances in 1974.
This cold case, forty years old, is a new challenge for Strike. Despite the slim chances of success, he is intrigued and decides to take it on, adding it to the busy list of cases he and his agency partner, Robin Ellacott, are currently working on. Robin herself is dealing with a messy divorce and unwanted male attention, while also grappling with her own emotions towards Strike.
As they investigate Margot's disappearance, Strike and Robin encounter a complex case involving tarot cards, a psychopathic serial killer, and untrustworthy witnesses. They soon realize that even decades-old cases can have deadly consequences.
