About The Cuckoo’s Calling
The Cuckoo’s Calling is the first novel in the Cormoran Strike series. The private investigator Cormoran Strike is at a low ebb: he has just split from his girlfriend and is deep in debt, forcing him to live in his office. When John Bristow approaches him about investigation the death of his sister, the famous model Lula Landry, Strike is initially reluctant to get involved, believing that there is no more to the case than the police’s ruling of suicide. However, his financial worries force him to take on the case, and he soon realizes that there is much more to Lily’s death than meets the eye, and that he must apprehend the killer before they can strike again.
About Robert Galbraith
Robert Galbraith is the pseudonym of J.K. Rowling, who is best-known for her Harry Potter series. This is the bestselling book series in history, with over 500 million copies sold to date and translations into dozens of languages. Given the success of the series and her international fame, Rowling opted to publish her Cormoran Strike series of crime novels under a pseudonym so that their reception would not be influenced by her reputation. She is also the author of The Casual Vacancy, her first novel for adults, which she published under her own name in 2012.
