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.
##平铺直叙的英式推理很久不见 罗琳阿姨文笔见长人物刻画功力一流 推理本身逻辑不够缜密 still a good read
评分##ab 罗琳大妈披了个马甲出的侦探小说,大妈太啰嗦了,唠唠叨叨的,一点也吸引人。看样子大妈是个爱看八卦的人。凶手从小就是个怪胎。我怎么觉得侦探大人和他的那个临时雇佣的秘书之间有点暧昧啊
评分##真的是意外惊喜特别喜欢。推理很随便最后凶手揭示是大弱点。但是罗琳真的是会讲故事,各种细节描写特别好,写人物/圈子更是一流。故事上感觉一定和Leveson Inquiry脱不了干系,她自己也出过庭。马上去看第二本。Strike和波洛,Shardlake一个脉络。
评分##感觉很差劲,情节也一般,拖沓冗长,难怪开头就卖几百本,直到亮出作者的字号太开始热销。

评分##最后凶手略狗血,前面铺垫太多了,一看就是个女人写的= =。
评分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.
评分##阿姨你用词真的太难了好嘛。Robin and Strike才是真正的看点所在。
评分##实在太扯了。看到一半我想“凶手不会是这个人吧,那也太牵强了”,果然就是这个人。= =而且推理小说最忌讳的就是抛出无数线索然后一个都没收回来啊。
