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. Peccato che dietro a un leader dal carisma innegabile ci sia un passato sordido e ben più di una morte sospetta. Entrare sotto copertura nella sede principale, una fattoria sperduta nel cuore del Norfolk, sembra l'unica soluzione, e Robin è pronta a farlo. Ma intelligenza e preparazione potrebbero non bastarle: addentrarsi nel lato oscuro dell'UHC si rivelera molto rischioso, tra vendette soprannaturali, ricatti ed ex adepti terrorizzati. Uniti come non mai, Robin e Strike dovranno mettere in campo non solo le loro capacita professionali, ma anche le risorse più personali e i ricordi più intimi, in una delle sfide più difficili e coinvolgenti in assoluto. Sepolcro in agguato catturera i lettori tra le sue pagine, in un epico, indimenticabile nuovo capitolo della storia di Robin e Strike.
