  We construct the most general, to cubic order in curvature, theory of gravity
whose (most general) static spherically symmetric vacuum solutions are fully
described by a single field equation. The theory possess the following
remarkable properties: i) it has a well-defined Einstein gravity limit ii) it
admits `Schwarzschild-like' solutions characterized by a single metric function
iii) on maximally symmetric backgrounds it propagates the same degrees of
freedom as Einstein's gravity iv) Lovelock and quasi-topological gravities, as
well as the recently developed Einsteinian cubic gravity [ArXiv:1607.06463] in
four dimensions, are recovered as special cases. We perform a brief analysis of
asymptotically flat black holes in this theory and study their thermodynamics.
