FIND OUT WHAT IS NEXT FOR STRIKE AND ROBIN
A dismembered corpse is discovered in the vault of a silver shop. The police initially believe it to be that of a convicted armed robber - but not everyone agrees with that theory. One of them is Decima Mullins, who calls on the help of private detective Cormoran Strike as she's certain the body in the silver vault was that of her boyfriend - the father of her newborn baby - who suddenly and mysteriously disappeared.
The more Strike and his business partner Robin Ellacott delve into the case, the more labyrinthine it gets. The silver shop is no ordinary one: it's located beside Freemasons' Hall and specialises in Masonic silverware. And in addition to the armed robber and Decima's boyfriend, it becomes clear that there are other missing men who could fit the profile of the body in the vault.
As the case becomes ever more complicated and dangerous, Strike faces another quandary. Robin seems increasingly committed to her boyfriend, policeman Ryan Murphy, but the impulse to declare his own feelings for her is becoming stronger than ever.
A gripping, wonderfully complex novel which takes Strike and Robin's story to a new level, The Hallmarked Man is an unmissable read for any fan of this unique series.©2025 Robert Galbraith Limited (P)2025 Hachette Audio UK

A terrific and tightly plotted romp ... With an apparent effortlessness that speaks of great discipline and skill, Galbraith keeps the plates of all four possible murder inquiries spinning, each one replete with its own satisfyingly unexpected feints and twists ... A triumph of storytelling (GUARDIAN)
These Galbraith novels are remarkable, the management of a variety of themes and stories extraordinary. Indeed, I would rather read Galbraith than any other crime writer now active. These are books you can happily lose yourself in. (The Scotsman)
Cancel all your plans [...] combines a fiendish mystery with the deliciously tangled will they/won't they romantic lives of private investigators Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott. [...] It's so good to have them back. (HEAT)
Galbraith has created a world that the reader wants to spend time in and I'm just as invested in the characters as I am the mysteries. Strike and Robin are two of the most compelling characters in contemporary fiction and I really hope we've got lots more books to come. 'The Hallmarked Man' is dark, twisty and endlessly addictive, and it's one of the strongest books in the Strike series so far.' (ENTERTAINMENT FOCUS)

JKR/RG creates rich and complex stories. This one may be a little too convoluted…
As a writer, JKR/RG is not adept of « show don’t tell ». She is not fond of stylistic devices either. Is she writing a screenplay? Does she need to keep us captive in her novel by adding all these unnecessary, redundant dialogues and details? Or perhaps she is so possessive of her creation that she wants to allow readers only the slightest freedom of interpretation; for example, in the dialogues, she often indicates the thoughts and interpretations of the protagonists. She can’t let go. If so, is she aware of her necessity to hold onto every aspect of her story ? A times, I wonder if she is trying to justify to her readership the fact that she is « on top of it all », having well in hand ALL the details of her story. Or, maybe, she writes like a machine, translating the images she has in her head in the most direct way. Does she take us, the readers, for light brained persons, to whom she need to explain everything extensively ? I try to consider this profusion of details as part of a sociological-ethnological study of England… vainly.
She portrays humans in a dark light, notably many women—most of them?—participating in and cooperating with their mistreatment.
Robin. In previous novels about Strike and her, I was already surprised by moments when Robin came across as harsh and lacking in empathy, even though she is portrayed as having quite the opposite personality. In this volume, her contradictions become obvious, and her dishonesty with herself becomes unbearable to me. “She wanted to hear how many more untruths he was prepared to tell,” she thinks, relentless, cold, and devoid of compassion about Ryan's alcoholism, even though, a few days earlier, she refused to respond honestly to his unambiguous message about her true feelings for him. “For months now, she'd felt guilty about lying to him by omission while he had been hiding this gigantic secret.” Robin considers her dishonesty to be benign compared to that of others. She repeats with Ryan Murphy what she did with her first husband. She betrays him. She waits for the opportunity to blame him for the failure of their relationship! She lies to her friend Ilsa, she manipulates her to get information out of her, then tells herself that “she's not going to betray her (Ilsa)” by revealing to Strike that Ilsa gave it to her!!! She lies, she lies all the time. After telling Ryan that they can't live together until they're honest with each other, she lies to him. Final flourish: “I'm not that person. I won't do to Ryan what Matthew did to me!”
She VERY OCCASIONALLY questions her attitude, but this does not lead her to act courageously.
Morality compass: oh, and, let’s not tell the truth ever to this child about his origins to protect his happiness…
The S-R relationship:
Strike and Robin are so perceptive in their work (except when Robin acts with very clumsy carelessness). Do they become agonizingly stupid in their relationship ! The accumulation of their lack of communication and misguided assumptions about each other becomes burdensome. Book after book, JKR/RG is dragging us aloooooooooooooonnng this recipe-relationship. Does she intend to kill one of them ? Wouldn’t it be more interesting to tell the beginning of their relationship as a couple ? It could feel more adult…
In conclusion, I will try to shake my small addiction to the story of Robin and Cormoran; there are so many good books to read or listen to, and my time is not infinite.
Another trap
