Cormoran Strike has one foot (literally) in the door of
financial ruin, he’s broken up with his girlfriend, living out of his office,
and receiving death threats from a previous client when John Bristow hires him
to prove that his supermodel sister did not commit suicide when she fell to her
death from the top floor of her apartment building. So Cormoran charges him an outrageous fee and
in a very systematic and organized way begins to investigate what seems from
every angle an obvious suicide. But the deeper he delves the more he comes to
realize that nothing is as it seems. My first exposure to JK Rowling was Casual Vacancy and I enjoyed it every bit as much as I did The Cuckoo’s Calling. I love the effort she
puts into creating her characters, the time she takes to set up the plot, the
English village aspect (although that’s pushing it for the London setting of The Cuckoo’s Calling) the way she
writes, all of it. And the best news of all! A sequels on its way.
