. - Når en modell faller i døden fra en snødekt balkong i Mayfair, antas det at hun har begått selvmord. Men broren hennes er ikke overbevist, og ber privatetterforsker Cormoran Strike ta en nærmere titt på saken. Strike er krigsveteran og sliter med senskader, både fysisk og psykisk. Livet hans er et komplett kaos, men denne saken gir han en sårt tiltrengt økonomisk livline. Men det skal vise seg at jo mer Strike dykker ned i modellens komplekse og mørke verden, desto mer utsetter han seg selv for stor fare. Dette er den første kriminalromanen fra suksessforfatteren JK Rowling. Hun skriver under pseudonymet Robert Galbraith.
When a troubled model falls to her death from a snow-covered Mayfair balcony, it is assumed that she has committed suicide. However, her brother has his doubts, and calls in private investigator Cormoran Strike to look into the case. Strike is a war veteran - wounded both physically and psychologically - and his life is in disarray. The case gives him a financial lifeline, but it comes at a personal cost: the more he delves into the young model's complex world, the darker things get - and the closer he gets to terrible danger ...A gripping, elegant mystery steeped in the atmosphere of London - from the hushed streets of Mayfair to the backstreet pubs of the East End to the bustle of Soho - The Cuckoo's Calling is a remarkable book. Introducing Cormoran Strike, this is the acclaimed first crime novel by J.K. Rowling, writing under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith.
