Once again, we are confronted with a gripping case; the large number of pages didn’t look appealing to me. As this is the eighth case so far, I should be used to it by now, but every time it seems like an insurmountable task for me. Apart from the large number of pages, I found it difficult to get into the story due to the large amount of information. The beginning also seemed a bit forced; it improved later on.
Once again, we see how good Strike and Robin work together, even though they don’t always see eye to eye. Although the case takes up a lot of pages, I would have liked the author to write more about the private life of the agency itself. Maybe in the next book, I hope there will be one. I don’t see the end of this book as the final one of the series, too much potential for future cases. We’ll see.
