Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books The Silkworm (Cormoran Strike #2)
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...Point Regarding Books The Silkworm (Cormoran Strike #2)

There are always loose ends in real life.Preordered, arrived and read right away.I'm not sure if I liked this one better or the first one. Though a lot of really weird stuff happened in this book (or better in the book in this book) I enjoyed it a lot. And for my part, I did not know the murderer until the end.Well, this is J.K. Rowling so what is there left to say?Find more of my books on Instagram

Robin is Strikes young personal
