The Running Grave is the seventh installment in the Cormoran Strike series by Robert Galbraith, the pseudonym of J.K. Rowling. Published on September 26, 2023, the novel delves into the harrowing world of cults, coercion, and the complexities of human relationships. Set in the Norfolk countryside, it follows private detectives Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott as they investigate the Universal Humanitarian Church (UHC), a group masquerading as a benevolent charity but exhibiting cult-like behaviors.
The story begins when Sir Colin Edensor, a retired civil servant, seeks the help of Strike and Robin to rescue his son, Will, from the UHC. Strike discovers that the cult's headquarters are located at Chapman Farm in Norfolk, a place with a haunting connection to his own past. Robin goes undercover at the farm, facing numerous challenges and uncovering disturbing truths about the cult's practices. As the investigation unfolds, the duo confronts personal demons and the pervasive influence of the UHC.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are your books brand new?
Mostly, we sell pre-loved books — they’ve been read, enjoyed, and are now ready for their next happy home.
How do I take care of my secondhand books?
Store them somewhere cool and dry. Use a dehumidifier if possible. Don’t feed them to booklice (yes, they exist). And if you notice tanning or foxing, don’t panic — it’s normal aging. Think of it as wrinkles on a wise old friend.
Do secondhand books have markings or highlights?
Some may have previous owner’s notes, highlights, or dedications on the first page. If a book has visible markings, we’ll always mention it in the description or upon inquiry.
How do you check the quality of secondhand books?
We carefully inspect every book before listing. Most of our books are in very good, readable condition, with no missing or damaged pages. For older, heavily foxed or tanned books, we still sell them at a lower price, as long as they remain complete and enjoyable to read. Condition and pricing are always reflected in the listing.
Where can we contact you for further inquiries?
We’re always active on our social media accounts — so go ahead, follow us and talk to us (seriously, nobody really talks to us 😅). You can also send us an email if you prefer. Either way, we’ll be happy to hear from you!
