The Cuckoo's Calling - A Cormoran Strike Novel

Detective Strike unravels a supermodel's mysterious death.

If you relish a satisfying detective story with deeply investigated characters, "The Cuckoo's Calling" should be right up your alley. It's a gritty, engaging read that takes you into the murky worlds of both high fashion and private investigating through the lens of Cormoran Strike, a character with as much depth and intrigue as the case he's trying to solve. It feels refreshingly old-school yet is filled with contemporary twists that keep you guessing. Fans of J.K. Rowling's storytelling will find her expertise in crafting intricate plots shines through under her Robert Galbraith pseudonym.

Description

After losing his leg to a land mine in Afghanistan, Cormoran Strike is barely scraping by as a private investigator. Then John Bristow walks through his door with an amazing story: His sister, the legendary supermodel Lula Landry, famously fell to her death a few months earlier. The police ruled it a suicide, but John refuses to believe that. The case plunges Strike into the world of multimillionaire beauties, rock-star boyfriends, and desperate designers, and it introduces him to every variety of pleasure, enticement, seduction, and delusion known to man.
