Actually a really good mystery-detective book with wonderful revelations, tense action, horrifying yet realistic villain, and an interesting way of keeping the pace that the previous books of the trilogy lack. Minus points because its held back by a confusing and unneeded section where J.K. Rowling is trying too hard to be transphobic in a sideways manner. The ending is also a bit open with Robin & Strike's relationship but I don't mind.
