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.
##这本依然充斥着扼杀读者想象力的过于详细的环境描写。推理的失败之处在于案件的线索和细节全面铺开,没有进行逐个筛除或提炼,而选择了在小说最后10%一下子圆掉,作者试图给读者一个真相大白的冲击感,可惜过长的前戏令人乏力。这一部中,Robin终于摆脱渣男,Strike也恢复单身,一个心灵受创,一个断腿残疾,两个残缺的人终于有望走到一起,互补为完美。故事的精彩之处是Robin的两次乔装卧底,她的独立调查部分也远远大于前三部,能力有了巨大的提升。最后一句的成对天鹅呼应第三本婚礼上的单只天鹅。
评分##距离引进版上市还有至少半年的时间,不知道我到时候能不能读完(毕竟懒得出奇/2019年3月6日更新:还没读完,我已经在等中文版上市了…
评分##继第一部The Cuckoo's Calling后最好的一本。

评分##太喜欢靠对话推进案情的方式了 几场(分手)感情戏都写得好好 Robin和Mat吵架的时候我终于理解罗琳之前塑造Mat这个角色的原因了
评分越写越长…开局一憨人,后边全靠聊,现场证据几乎为零,全靠访谈和推测人物关系,具体方法在于窃听、激怒和讨好客户,以便得到对办客户的案子有利的消息——权贵阶级真是矫情。罗宾shithole婚姻让我莫名共情,她于彻底疲惫失意之时想起Blanc de Blanc是全书最佳段落,超越了推理作品,罗琳突围。同是糟糕童年,有人成为光明,有人堕入黑暗,斯特莱克可没有什么制度化的同情,命运理所当然假定被握在人自己手中。中译本必须把put horse翻成“放马”,不然我是不答应的!每本书引文都为我种草,这次打算去读罗斯莫庄

评分##piebald, twin swans, and blanc de blanc — 这些小心思和小伏笔真是so exquisitely-executed, just like the murder. 那种近乎偏执的繁复环境描写(这才是真的可以让人按图索骥在伦敦逛一个月的书吧!)和复古人物刻画(不管多minor的角色都要认真写上一页)里无与伦比的实感真的可以让人原谅(甚至爱上)谋杀发生前的三百页,而后三百页就太太好看了。也依旧没忘记作为系列核心的social commentary,把左右两头从上到下都骂了一通,Izzy的那种“善良的虚伪”塑造得也太好了。各种隐秘的心理活动绝对满分:采访是一面,另一面robin和cormoran的互动就读得满脸姨母笑哈哈哈,再不发生点啥????立马下单book 5!
