Publisher's Summary

Private Detective Cormoran Strike is contacted by a worried father whose son, Will, has gone to join a religious cult in the depths of the Norfolk countryside.

The Universal Humanitarian Church is, on the surface, a peaceable organisation that campaigns for a better world. Yet Strike discovers that beneath the surface there are deeply sinister undertones, and unexplained deaths.

In order to try to rescue Will, Strike's business partner Robin Ellacott decides to infiltrate the cult and she travels to Norfolk to live incognito amongst them. But in doing so, she is unprepared for the dangers that await her there or for the toll it will take on her...

Unstoppable, The Running Grave moves Strike and Robin's story forward in the epic, unforgettable seventh instalment of the series.

Stike really hitting his stride

The storyline was amazingly intriguing, gripping in parts when you just can't put the story down. Loved this one the best as Strike really does hit his stride in this story. It is very cleverly written as the growth of Strike's personality, and the development of his family connections are very well done.

BRILLIANT

Robert Glennisters reading as always is phenomenal. But this story! The best one by far. The story is fantastic, and for once we get some character development into Strike and Robin too. I’ve got 13 hours to go but I felt compelled to write this review because it’s just SO FAB!!!

Another fabulous read

I wanted to ration this book, I had waited so long for it’s release, but no within a few words I was once again hooked. Now I am waiting and hoping that the next, Strike & Robyn, book is underway and I can get through the wait with just a dozen or so rereads.
Brilliant book such a writing talent!!

I had to listen on it was riveting

Such a wonderfully woven, written and developed story. That was thought provoking, intriguing and courageous. I wish it had continued on another 30 odd hours. Loved it!

Riveting!

Suspenseful, edge of your seat, keeps you guessing and I couldn’t stop listening! The plot was so good and the twist at the end was well worth the wait 🤯🥰
