The Running Grave

"For me, the best crime series currently being published is the one featuring private detective Cormoran Strike. It’s written by Robert Galbraith (aka JK Rowling) and so it’s widely marketed and hard to miss when you pass a bookstore. Galbraith/Rowling is now at the 7th book in the series, The Running Grave , published exactly a decade on from the first. These books are a slow-burn, for people who like long books and living alongside the characters. If you haven’t read one yet, it is important to start from the beginning and read them in order so you get to know the protagonists. I listen to them as audiobooks , and believe the narrator—British actor Robert Glenister—helps make the series exceptional (the only book in the series I haven’t enjoyed as much was the one I read as a physical book). In The Running Grave , Strike’s partner Robin Ellacott—who in my mind looks exactly like JK Rowling—goes undercover at a religious cult in Norfolk. The Cormoran Strike series by Robert Galbraith"
