Lethal White is the fourth book in the Cormoran Strike series from the international bestselling author Robert Galbraith.
"I seen a kid killed...He strangled it, up by the horse."
When Billy, a troubled young man, comes to private eye Cormoran Strike's office to ask for his help investigating a crime he thinks he witnessed as a child, Strike is left deeply unsettled. While Billy is obviously mentally distressed, and cannot remember many concrete details, there is something sincere about him and his story. But before Strike can question him further, Billy bolts from his office in a panic.
Trying to get to the bottom of Billy's story, Strike and Robin Ellacott-once his assistant, now a partner in the agency-set off on a twisting trail that leads them through the backstreets of London, into a secretive inner sanctum within Parliament, and to a beautiful but sinister manor house deep in the countryside.
And during this labyrinthine investigation, Strike's own life is far from straightforward: his newfound fame as a private eye means he can no longer operate behind the scenes as he once did. Plus, his relationship with his former assistant is more fraught than it ever has been-Robin is now invaluable to Strike in the business, but their personal relationship is much, much trickier than that.
The most epic Robert Galbraith novel yet, Lethal White is both a gripping mystery and a page-turning next instalment in the ongoing story of Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott.
##It took me 2 months to finish reading this book. It is a long story with very complicated plot. The language is good as usual, but the mystery itself is not as gripping as I’d expected it to be.
評分##Like Harry Potter, each book in the series gets longer and longer. Talk about a convoluted plot...
評分##老實說隻有極少數作者能讓我讀一本600多頁的懸疑,有這個耐心且還能感覺不錯的,羅琳女士絕對是其中一人瞭。客觀地講,這本的故事主綫本身並不是這係列裏最令人熱血沸騰的,作者更側重抽絲剝繭找真相(你可以評價她描寫的這個過程細節化到極緻),還有羅琳標誌性的寫作特點:不管“戲份”多少,每個人物刻畫飽滿到讓人足以相信他們都是現實中人。這些都增加篇幅。所以不奇怪的,這本裏麵Strike和Robin的各自感情故事也得到更多筆墨。他們各自的問題,誤會和睏擾讓跟瞭一路的讀者會有些“不耐煩”,我讀的時候也有這個情緒,仔細一想還是因為作者把這些人物寫得太真實,讓人在意。看著你認識的“朋友”感情裏“犯傻”,很難忍住內心的焦慮。加上復雜的懸疑主綫,這確實是一本容易讓人感覺發展慢的書,但其實它並不是一個節奏拖遝的故事。

評分##piebald, twin swans, and blanc de blanc — 這些小心思和小伏筆真是so exquisitely-executed, just like the murder. 那種近乎偏執的繁復環境描寫(這纔是真的可以讓人按圖索驥在倫敦逛一個月的書吧!)和復古人物刻畫(不管多minor的角色都要認真寫上一頁)裏無與倫比的實感真的可以讓人原諒(甚至愛上)謀殺發生前的三百頁,而後三百頁就太太好看瞭。也依舊沒忘記作為係列核心的social commentary,把左右兩頭從上到下都罵瞭一通,Izzy的那種“善良的虛僞”塑造得也太好瞭。各種隱秘的心理活動絕對滿分:采訪是一麵,另一麵robin和cormoran的互動就讀得滿臉姨母笑哈哈哈,再不發生點啥????立馬下單book 5!
評分##距離引進版上市還有至少半年的時間,不知道我到時候能不能讀完(畢竟懶得齣奇/2019年3月6日更新:還沒讀完,我已經在等中文版上市瞭…
評分##太喜歡靠對話推進案情的方式瞭 幾場(分手)感情戲都寫得好好 Robin和Mat吵架的時候我終於理解羅琳之前塑造Mat這個角色的原因瞭
