Nico Kolovas-Jones: She lived in a world that's really fucking hard. We had a lot in common.
Cormoran Strike: Such as?

Cormoran Strike: [Confronted by a man with a kitchen knife] What are you going to do; butter me?

Robin Ellacott: [Gets into a taxi and bursts into tears. The taxi driver hands her a box of tissues] I've just left my husband.
Minicab Driver: [Sympathetically] Yeah? I've left two. Gets easier with practice.

Robin Ellacott: [She is leaving Matthew overs proof that he is having an affair] I don't want to be with you any more. We should have split up on honeymoon. I mean, we shouldn't even have got married. I thought I owed you this face to face.
Matthew Cunliffe: How do you think your life looks to other people? You bailed out on uni. Now you're bailing out on us. You're a flake. You're a Peeping Tom for a living - and you managed to get sacked from that! You know he's only taken you back because you're cheap.
Robin Ellacott: [Calmly] Thank you. You've just made this really easy.
