L’ormai famosa agenzia Strike ed Ellacott ha risolto molti casi inestricabili. Quello che rimane non risolto è il rapporto trai due soci, segnato da un’amicizia profonda e inquieta, tra slanci imprevedibili e sotterranee gelosie. Quando l’anziano Sir Colin Edensor chiede il loro aiuto per tirar fuori il figlio Will da una setta che lo ha plagiato, i due accettano senza esitare. In nome della lotta per un mondo migliore, la Universal Humanitarian Church allontana i suoi membri dai loro affetti e li induce a elargire enormi donazioni, diventando sempre più potente.

L’agenzia di Cormoran Strike e Robin Ellacott – detective privati, soci in affari e autoproclamatisi "migliori amici’"– non è certo a corto di clienti. Così, quando una giovane donna dall’aria stravolta si presenta in ufficio, la segretaria la rispedirebbe volentieri indietro, ma l’intuito di Robin le dice di ascoltarla.
