Private investigator Cormoran Strike returns in a new mystery from Robert Galbraith, author of the #1 international bestseller The Cuckoo's Calling.
When
novelist Owen Quine goes missing, his wife calls in private detective
Cormoran Strike.
At first, Mrs. Quine just thinks her husband has gone
off by himself for a few days--as he has done before--and she wants
Strike to find him and bring him home.
But as
Strike investigates, it becomes clear that there is more to Quine's
disappearance than his wife realizes.
The novelist has just completed a
manuscript featuring poisonous pen-portraits of almost everyone he
knows.
If the novel were to be published, it would ruin lives--meaning
that there are a lot of people who might want him silenced.
When
Quine is found brutally murdered under bizarre circumstances, it
becomes a race against time to understand the motivation of a ruthless
killer, a killer unlike any Strike has encountered before...
A
compulsively readable crime novel with twists at every turn, THE
SILKWORM is the second in the highly acclaimed series featuring Cormoran
Strike and his determined young assistant, Robin Ellacott.
