Sinossi
'Qualcuno l’aveva sentita gridare...'
Quando una top model, celebre e tormentata, precipita dal balcone del suo attico a Mayfair nessuno dubita che si tratti di un suicidio. L’unico a non crederci è suo fratello che decide di rivolgersi a Cormoran Strike per far luce sul caso. Strike è un reduce della guerra in Afghanistan, dove è stato ferito nel corpo e nello spirito, e la sua vita è nel caos. Il nuovo incarico gli dà un po’ di respiro, ma a caro prezzo: più si immerge nel mondo complesso e spietato della modella, più la vicenda diventa oscura e densa di pericoli… Un romanzo di grande equilibrio narrativo e ad alta tensione, ambientato in una Londra ipnotica e ricca di seduzioni, dal chiasso di Soho, al lusso di Mayfair, ai gremiti pub dell’East End. Il richiamo del cuculo segna l’esordio di una nuova e avvincente serie di gialli e decreta l’ingresso trionfale nella letteratura poliziesca di Cormoran Strike, nella scia di classici come P.D. James e Ruth Rendell.

I like detective novels and I am a fan of J.K.
