Rowling really knows how to write a mystery! It took me some time to get into this one and to really care about the case, but when I hit the mid-point of the book I was really into it! I had abesolutely no idea who the killer was, and suspected EVERYONE. But in the end, I had not figured out the true killer, and not really suspected the person much during the book. But of course when it was revealed, there was multipel small hints trough out the book, which pointed to the person. I just did not catch them.
When Strike figured out who the killer was, it was so frusterating, that Rowling kept reminding us, that Strike had it figured out, but we - the readers - was not going to be told for quite some time. As frustration as it was, it was one of the things that kept me on my toes to get the book finished, and what was contributing to making it a fantastic read.
I felt disapointed with the small amount of perspective we got from Robin - I felt it was much lesser than it was in the first book. But we got more from her at the end of the book.
