The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith (Book Analysis) : Detailed Summary, Analysis and Reading Guide

Unlock the more straightforward side of The Cuckoo’s Calling with this concise and insightful summary and analysis!

This engaging summary presents an analysis of The Cuckoo’s Calling by Robert Galbraith, which follows the private investigator Cormoran Strike as he tries to uncover the truth about the death of a famous model. Although Lily Landry’s death was initially ruled a suicide, Strike is persuaded to take on the case, partly at the insistence of her adopted brother and partly to ease his own financial troubles. He soon finds that many of the people around her were hiding something, and it is up to him to unravel this web of deceit to find out who killed Lily and why. The Cuckoo’s Calling is the first novel in the Cormoran Strike series; it was followed by the sequels The Silkworm, Career of Evil and Lethal White. Robert Galbraith is the pseudonym of J.K.
