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.
I read this last year and loved it, this copy bought for The 12 Days of Christmas Exchange.

This is now on its way to Germany as part of the 12 Days of Christmas Exchange, hope you enjoy this as much as I did.
The bird themed envelope arrived yesterday. Thank you so much for the 4. day of Christmas (Am I right?)
I was a little bit confused, when I saw the book. It was the same title I sent out with my second day of Christmas. Found a cuckoo dove :-)
