Cormoran Strike used to be an active and brave veteran in the past because of which he was selected for the mission in Afghanistan. The man fought hard against the enemies but in the process of doing so, she also lost his leg when he walked on a land mine. This vital loss took him away from active work because he wasn’t able to perform any action after that.
Strike thought that it was time to use his mind instead of his body so he shifted to the profession of a private investigator. Strike’s hopes were high as he thought he would be able to make quite a name for himself in the profession. His expectations were ruined when he became bankrupt within a few months and with no case in hand, Strike thought that his career was over once again.
Finally, on one occasion a man named John Bristow came to Strike and he told Strike that he was the brother of a famous model known as the Cuckoo. Cuckoo died a few months ago, according to the police it was a suicide but her brother does not believe in the thing. John thinks that her sister was killed and he wants Strike to investigate the case. As the case is linked to the world of fashion so Strike enters into the glamorous world which can charm anyone.
Robert Galbraith the creator of Career of Evil and The Ink Black Heart has given a superb gift to his fans in the form of this story. Robert Glenister is perhaps one of those narrators who can narrate glamorous situations excellently so his selection for the novel was picture-perfect.
