When a mysterious package is delivered to Robin Ellacott, she is horrified to discover that it contains a woman's severed leg.
Her boss, private detective Cormoran Strike, is less surprised but no less alarmed. There are four people from his past who he thinks could be responsible--and Strike knows that any one of them is capable of sustained and unspeakable brutality.
With the police focusing on the one suspect Strike is increasingly sure is not the perpetrator, he and Robin take matters into their own hands, and delve into the dark and twisted worlds of the other three men. But as more horrendous acts occur, time is running out for the two of them...
Career of Evil is the third in the highly acclaimed series featuring private detective Cormoran Strike and his assistant Robin Ellacott. A fiendishly clever mystery with unexpected twists around every corner, it is also a gripping story of a man and a woman at a crossroads in their personal and professional lives.

This is a pseudonym for J.K. Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series and The Casual Vacancy.
Rowling was born to Peter James Rowling, a Rolls-Royce aircraft engineer, and Anne Rowling (née Volant), on 31 July 1965 in Yate, Gloucestershire, England, 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Bristol. Her mother Anne was half-French and half-Scottish. Her parents first met on a train departing from King's Cross Station bound for Arbroath in 1964. They married on 14 March 1965. Her mother's maternal grandfather, Dugald Campbell, was born in Lamlash on the Isle of Arran. Her mother's paternal grandfather, Louis Volant, was awarded the Croix de Guerre for exceptional bravery in defending the village of Courcelles-le-Comte during the First World War.
Rowling's sister Dianne was born at their home when Rowling was 23 months old. The family moved to the nearby village Winterbourne when Rowling was four. She attended St Michael's Primary School, a school founded by abolitionist William Wilberforce and education reformer Hannah More. Her headmaster at St Michael's, Alfred Dunn, has been suggested as the inspiration for the Harry Potter headmaster Albus Dumbledore.
As a child, Rowling often wrote fantasy stories, which she would usually then read to her sister. She recalls that: "I can still remember me telling her a story in which she fell down a rabbit hole and was fed strawberries by the rabbit family inside it. Certainly the first story I ever wrote down (when I was five or six) was about a rabbit called Rabbit. He got the measles and was visited by his friends, including a giant bee called Miss Bee." At the age of nine, Rowling moved to Church Cottage in the Gloucestershire village of Tutshill, close to Chepstow, Wales. When she was a young teenager, her great aunt, who Rowling said "taught classics and approved of a thirst for knowledge, even of a questionable kind," gave her a very old copy of Jessica Mitford's autobiography, Hons and Rebels. Mitford became Rowling's heroine, and Rowling subsequently read all of her books.
Rowling has said of her teenage years, in an interview with The New Yorker, "I wasn’t particularly happy. I think it’s a dreadful time of life." She had a difficult homelife; her mother was ill and she had a difficult relationship with her father (she is no longer on speaking terms with him). She attended secondary school at Wyedean School and College, where her mother had worked as a technician in the science department. Rowling said of her adolescence, "Hermione [a bookish, know-it-all Harry Potter character] is loosely based on me. She's a caricature of me when I was eleven, which I'm not particularly proud of." Steve Eddy, who taught Rowling English when she first arrived, remembers her as "not exceptional" but "one of a group of girls who were bright, and quite good at English." Sean Harris, her best friend in the Upper Sixth owned a turquoise Ford Anglia, which she says inspired the one in her books.

在kindle里看是明智的选择,看了三章弃了。着重心理活动和人物描写,似乎侦探小说只是个噱头。

披着侦探小说皮的言情小说,亮点依旧是人物塑造与角色关系,硬伤依旧是推理悬疑部分。找了半天嫌疑犯都只是为了提供主角的成长背景和性格细节,为了塑造形象而强行拖戏。而且硬汉配好女孩和侦探+助手等等的设定过于老套,没有什么新鲜感。总的来说这是一本略显平庸甚至是糟糕的侦探小说,但是看到Robin分手那里实在是太爽啦哈哈哈哈哈终于女主角可以和strike在一起了!!!!!

终究是悬疑情节撑不住,读上一本的时候觉得文笔挺好,到这本就腻了

无论是案情还是感情线都挺没劲的,Robin选择和Matthew复合就很离谱

其实,三个 Strike 自己列出来的嫌疑人中,具体是哪个干的是非常清楚的,哪怕说罗琳撒了很多诸如儿子、“它”、罗宾恰好在访问了其中某人之后遇袭之类的红鲱鱼——因为三个嫌疑人的乖戾之处各不相同。本案最大的谜团其实是,这个嫌疑人是怎么做到杀死那个有 BIID 的女孩的。关于这一点,线索也确实在书的中部就给出了——唯一的问题是,破案的线索之一是某种植物花期不对,但作者根本没强调这植物“盛开”。

学会了新词transable。Transgender是不是心理疾病我不知道,但是transable的一定是,有这个想法的人请去看医生积极治疗。这本书穿插了四个人的故事在里面,多线追踪,CS常常处于没钱腿疼心累的阶段,看起来有点辛苦,不是爽文式的侦探故事。略啰嗦。

花了一个月读完英文版,作者构思挺巧妙的,不过最后揭秘的时候我都忘了凶手假扮的人是谁了,又花了半小时回去找...第一本完全仔仔细细查单词看懂没有划水的英文小说,评论留念下吧。
