A Review of 'On the Service of Evil' by Robert Galbraith
I must admit, I was thoroughly unimpressed by this book. As a huge fan of the Harry Potter series, I was excited to dive into Robert Galbraith's latest novel, but unfortunately, it failed to deliver.
StorylineThe story follows Cormoran Strike, a private detective, and his assistant Robin Ellacott as they investigate a series of gruesome murders. The plot is predictable and lacks the excitement and suspense that I've come to expect from a good mystery novel.
