"a strong and enticing read ... It's a gripping tale set in
bustling London, and the author - whether called Galbraith or
Rowling - shows superb flair as a mystery writer"--Irish
Examiner
"A remarkably assured debut. Robert Galbraith's portrayal of
celebrity-obsessed modern London is at once beautifully written and
utterly engrossing, his characters so real you could eat dinner
with them, his ever-coiling plot guaranteed to keep you up past
your bedtime. I couldn't put it down."--Owen Laukkanen, author of
The Professionals
"Combines a complex and compelling sleuth and an equally
well-formed and unlikely assistant with a baffling crime...A
stellar debut."--Publishers Weekly (starred review)
"It's really, really good - beautifully written with a terrific
plot ... It's a terrific read, gripping, original and funny ...
Please, please give us more of Robert Galbraith and Cormoran
Strike. I can't wait for the next"--Richard and Judy, Daily
Express
"Plenty of twists...Totally engrossing...Galbraith's take on
contemporary celebrity obsession makes for a grand beach
read."--Library Journal, starred review (Mystery Debut of the
Month)
