In 'The Cuckoo's Calling', the first acclaimed mystery novel by J.K. Rowling, written under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith, a young model with emotional problems falls from her balcony in Mayfair in the middle of the night. On the snowy street of the famous London neighborhood, her lifeless body is found. Everyone assumes it was a suicide, except her brother, who hires private investigator Cormoran Strike to take over the case. A war veteran with physical and psychological after-effects, Strike leads a disastrous life. The assignment gives him some economic respite, but the deeper he delves into the complex world of the model, the murkier everything seems and the closer he gets to great danger. An elegant and absorbing mystery novel, steeped in the atmosphere of London: from the most select streets of Mayfair to the hidden pubs of the East End or the bustle of Soho.
