The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith A statement from the publisher Little, Brown Book Group confirm that Robert Galbraith is a pseudonym for J.K. Rowling, as reported in The Sunday Times on 14th July, and that the story was correct in that it was not a leak or part of a marketing campaign. The book was published by Little, Brown’s Sphere imprint on 18th April, 2013. A spokesperson for Little, Brown said, “We were very pleased and proud to have published The Cuckoo's Calling, and we're delighted with the great response it has been met with from readers, reviewers and fellow writers. We're looking forward to publishing Strike's next instalment in summer 2014.” About the book: 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. ‘The Cuckoo's Calling reminds me why I fell in love with crime fiction in the first place’ Val McDermid ‘One of the most unique and compelling detectives I've come across in years’ Mark Billingham ‘Every time I put this book down, I looked forward to reading more. Gabraith writes at a gentle pace, the pages rich with description and with characters that leap out of them. I loved it. He is a major new talent.’ Peter James ‘One of the best crime novels I have ever read’ Alex Gray ‘Just once in a while a private detective emerges who captures the public imagination in a flash. And here is one who might well do that… There is no sign that this is Galbraith’s first novel, only that he has a delightful touch for evoking London and capturing a new hero. An auspicious debut’ Daily Mail ‘a scintillating debut novel… Galbraith delivers sparkling dialogue and a convincing portrayal of the emptiness of wealth and glamour’ The Times ‘There’s yet another fictional detective on the scene and I found him utterly compelling. Cormoran Strike is a one-legged ex-soldier now working as Private Investigator… Luckily for Strike, he’s joined by the wonderfully efficient temp, Robin. They’re a team made in heaven and I can’t wait for the next in the series’ Saga ‘In a rare feat, Galbraith combines a complex and compelling sleuth and an equally well-formed and unlikely assistant with a baffling crime… Readers will hope to see a lot more of this memorable sleuthing team’ Publishers Weekly ‘a gripping tale’ Irish Examiner ‘The plot could have come from an Agatha Christie novel and yet The Cuckoo’s Calling is absolutely of today, colourfully written and great fun’ BookOxygen.com About the author: J.K.

Krimić o kojem svi pričaju - Zov kukavice Napet, otmjen krimić smješten u ozračje Londona - od mirnih ulica Mayfaira do pabova u pokrajnjim uličicama East Enda i vreve Sohoa Nakon što je engleska verzija ovog vrlo popularnog, briljantnog debitanskog kriminalističkog romana Roberta Galbraitha izašla na engleskom jeziku u travnju ove godine (dobila je odlične komentare i preporuke te visoke ocjene na Goodreads, s prosjekom 4.01.), ovaj kriminalistički roman ZOV KUKAVICE zasjao je na policama hrvatskih knjižara. Ovo je novi krimić kakav samo možete poželjeti, uz sam bok Ruth Rendell i P.D.Jamesa - izvanredan kriminalistički roman čija se radnja odvija u mračnim ulicama Londona. Ako mislite da poznajete detektive iz mračnih krimi romana, onda još niste upoznali Strikea i njegovu asistenticu Robin! Upoznajte nezaboravan detektivski tim! Sadržaj: Kad se manekenka problematična ponašanja baci sa svojega snijegom prekrivena balkona u londonskom Mayfairu, svi će pretpostaviti da je riječ o samoubojstvu. Međutim, njezin brat ne dijeli opće mišljenje i unajmljuje privatnog istražitelja Cormorana Strikea da se pozabavi slučajem. Strike je ratni veteran - ranjen kako fizički tako i psihički - i život mu je u rasulu. Raspada mu se ljubavna veza, posao mu baš i ne ide i slučaj istrage smrti poznate manekenke učinit će mu se poput pojasa za spašavanje. No dobar honorar neće biti lako zaraditi: što dublje bude ulazio u neobičan svijet mlade manekenke, stvari će postajati sve mračnije i Strike će se približiti otkriću šokantne tajne i ući u samo srce opasnosti...

Recenzije: „Jedan od najosebujnijih i najzanimljivijih detektiva na kojeg sam naišao." - Mark Billingham „Tek ponekad se pojavi privatni detektiv koji u hipu osvoji maštu javnosti. A ovaj bi to mogao... (Galbraith) vješto oživljava London i oslikava novog junaka.„ - Daily Mail „Prštav roman smješten u svijet manekenki, repera, modnih dizajnera, narkomana i nedopuštenih veza." - The Times „U rijetkoj književnoj poslastici, Galbraith spaja kompleksnog i zanimljivog detektiva i njegovu jednako zanimljivu, nevjerojatnu pomoćnicu sa zakučastim zločinom... Čitatelji će se nadati novim pustolovinama tog nezaboravnog detektivskog tima." - Publishers Weekly „Predivno svježe i zabavno!" - The Daily Telegraph „Zanosno i dobro, vještina koja očarava." - Mirror "Ovo je jako dobra knjiga sama po sebi." - The Independent „Robert Galbraith je napisao vrlo zabavnu knjigu ... čak i bolje, on je predstavio atraktivnog protagonist Strikea, koji će sigurno biti zvijezda mnogih nastavaka koji slijede .... Njegova priča prati neizvjesnost samog romana. Još je važnije da Strike i njegova sadašnja asistentica Robin (kao što je Salander Blomkvistu) postaju tim, tim čije slijedeće slučajeve čitatelji neće moći dočekati!" - New York Times "Zanimljiva detektivska priča." - Bloomberg "Duhovit, pun zamršenih misterija... Zov kukavice majstorsko je djelo." - Cleveland Plain Dealer „SvaKi put kad sam spustio knjigu, jedva sam čekao da nastavim čitati. Galbraith piše s nježnim tempom, stranice su bogate opisom i sa likovima koji iskaču iz njih. Svidjelo mi se. On je veliki novi talent." - Peter James, jedan od najprodavanijih pisaca krimića u UK
