The Cuckoo's Calling
A gripping crime novel by J. K. Rowling, written under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith. It masterfully depicts the atmosphere of the metropolis of London – from the sleepy calm of the streets in Mayfair to the forgotten pubs in the East End and the lively bustle of Soho. The Cuckoo's Calling is the highly acclaimed debut of Robert Galbraith, the pseudonym of the author of the Harry Potter series, J. K. Rowling. In it, we meet Cormoran Strike for the first time, a truly unusual and charismatic private detective whose originality is hard to match among contemporary detectives.
When famous model Lula Landry plummets from her snow-covered balcony in London's Mayfair, investigators quickly conclude that it was suicide. The case seems closed. But Lula's brother still has certain doubts. And he hires a private detective to uncover the truth. Cormoran Strike has been left with severe physical and psychological scars from Afghanistan. A lack of cases has landed him in a damned unpleasant financial situation and he's drowning in debt. This spectacular new case is a literal lifesaver for him, but Strike has no idea what surprises the investigation will bring.
As he delves deeper into the world of distinguished rich men and beautiful, seductive women, he uncovers horrifying connections and finds himself in mortal danger.
