<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Working as a private investigator after losing his leg in Afghanistan, Cormoran Strike takes the case of a legendary supermodel's suspicious suicide and finds himself in a world of multi-millionaire beauties, rock-star boyfriends, desperate designers and hedonist pursuits.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>La serie protagonizada por Cormoran Strike, convertida en una gran producción de la BBC<br></b><p>Después de perder su pierna en la explosión de una mina terrestre en Afganistán, Cormoran Strike intenta rehacer su vida como investigador privado. En el terreno personal no le va mucho mejor: acaba de romper con su novia de siempre, por lo que ha tenido que marcharse de casa e instalarse en la oficina.</p><p>En este desastroso momento de su vida aparece John Bristow con una historia asombrosa: su hermana, la legendaria supermodelo Lula Landry, conocida por sus amigos como El Cuco, ha caído desde su balcón de Mayfair en plena noche. Todo el mundo asume que se trata de un suicidio, excepto John, que se niega a creer eso.</p><p>El encargo concede cierto respiro económico a Strike, pero, cuanto más profundiza en el complejo mundo de la modelo, más oscuro le parece todo y más se acerca a un gran peligro. Un elegante misterio impregnado de la atmósfera de Londres, desde las calles más selectas de Mayfair hasta los pubs ocultos del East End o el bullicio del Soho.</p><p><b>ENGLISH DESCRIPTION</b></p><b><p><br><b>Published under a pseudonym, J. K. Rowling's brilliant debut mystery introduces Detective Cormoran Strike as he investigates a supermodel's suicide in one of the best books of the year (<i>USA Today</i>).</b></p></b><p><br>After losing his leg to a land mine in Afghanistan, Cormoran Strike is barely scraping by as a private investigator. Strike is down to one client, creditors are calling, and after a breakup with his longtime girlfriend, he's living in his office.</p><p><br>Then John Bristow walks through his door with a shocking story: His sister, the legendary supermodel Lula Landry -- known to her friends as the Cuckoo -- famously fell to her death a few months earlier. The police ruled it a suicide, but John refuses to believe that. The case plunges Strike into the world of multimillionaire beauties, rock-star boyfriends, and desperate designers, and it introduces him to every variety of pleasure, enticement, seduction, and delusion known to man. <p/>You may think you know detectives, but you've never met one quite like Strike. You may think you know about the wealthy and famous, but you've never seen them under an investigation like this. <p/>Fast-paced and sharply drawn, this dazzling detective novel inspired <i>Strike</i>, the BBC crime drama series that has captivated millions of viewers worldwide.</p><b><p> </p></b><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Robert Galbraith</b> es un seudónimo de J.K.
