Book: Lethal White by Robert Galbraith

Lethal White (Cormoran Strike, #4)Lethal White by Robert Galbraith
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

Lots of twists and turns in the fourth (and longest) Cormoran Strike book with blackmail, murder, and horses - set in the backdrop of the 2012 London Olympics. But the mystery felt slightly overwritten, with the pace picking up only in the last 100 pages or so. Perhaps it was because Strike and assistant-turned-partner Robin spent too much time apart initially. For the magic only happens when they solve crimes together.
