Career Of Evil

I loved Galbraith's first two Cormoran Strike novels (The Cuckoo's Calling and Silkworm) so it's no wonder I wanted to continue with the series.
Blurb:
When a mysterious package is delivered to Robin Ellacott, she is horrified to discover that it contains a woman’s severed leg.
Her boss, private detective Cormoran Strike, is less surprised but no less alarmed. There are four people from his past who he thinks could be responsible – and Strike knows that any one of them is capable of sustained and unspeakable brutality.
With the police focusing on the one suspect Strike is increasingly sure is not the perpetrator, he and Robin take matters into their own hands, and delve into the dark and twisted worlds of the other three men. But as more horrendous acts occur, time is running out for the two of them…
A fiendishly clever mystery with unexpected twists around every corner, Career of Evil is also a gripping story of a man and a woman at a crossroads in their personal and professional lives. You will not be able to put this book down.

I always enjoy the Strike novels, although I think I preferred the first two to this one. Whilst the story line was good (much more grisly and with more depth to the characters) and kept you guessing right to the end with the plot twists it felt like it took a longer time to get through this story, although that might have been because I just wanted to find out what happened!
Looking forward to continuing the Strike saga with the fourth book!
