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 a classic crime novel in the tradition of P. D. James and Ruth Rendell, and marks the beginning of a unique series of mysteries.
##偵探君真是不打算改行去做記者?助手明顯更懂查案的感覺,綫索鋪那麼開都是絮絮叨叨,羅琳姨營銷比書好,不過感覺拍個迷你劇倒應該不錯
評分##感覺很差勁,情節也一般,拖遝冗長,難怪開頭就賣幾百本,直到亮齣作者的字號太開始熱銷。
評分##阿姨你用詞真的太難瞭好嘛。Robin and Strike纔是真正的看點所在。

評分Honestly I can't fancy this detective fiction even i know it's written by Rowling. She tried to disguise to be tough and hard but so much tedious description of environment neither really did building thrilled atmosphere nor it's helpful of pushing the story to be wonderful. For respecting her courage to challenge herself, i finished reading it up.
