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.
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.
評分##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##也許是斷斷續續看瞭好久的緣故,作為一本偵探小說感覺完全沒有扣人心懸的感覺。Strike查案的方式就像冗長的麵試,問到最後竟能讓人忘記最初的問題。
評分##口味不同吧,真心不喜歡這本書。
評分##是我沒有讀齣來暗藏的玄機,其實我一直覺得應該是uncle不是她哥哥纔對
評分##最後凶手略狗血,前麵鋪墊太多瞭,一看就是個女人寫的= =。
評分##ab 羅琳大媽披瞭個馬甲齣的偵探小說,大媽太囉嗦瞭,嘮嘮叨叨的,一點也吸引人。看樣子大媽是個愛看八卦的人。凶手從小就是個怪胎。我怎麼覺得偵探大人和他的那個臨時雇傭的秘書之間有點曖昧啊
