    Summary

    Immediately following the events of Troubled Blood, Robin and Strike fall headlong into an intimate relationship. At the same time, the partners take a new case on behalf of Jago Ross. While Cormoran holds things down at the office, Robin leads undercover surveillance at a high-profile bank. But when the conclusion of a serial rapist's prison sentence coincides with sinister notes posted to the agency, the new lovers quarrel. Convinced Robin's attacker from her days at uni is free and making his way to London, Cormoran pleads her to stay off surveillance. Robin believes the only way to be wholly and authentically free is to see her investigation through to its end. Can she secure evidence for their client before a ghost of her past catches up with her, and will Cormoran's affection survive the trial of her integrity?
