I finished The Cuckoo's Calling by Robert Galbraith last night. Galbraith is a pseudonym for JK Rowling. The Cuckoo's Calling is the first book in the Cormoran Strike series. Strike is a private detective in England. Both his business and love life are failing, but he gets a great new start when Robin joins his office as a temporary secretary. The day she joins, he gets asked to help prove that supermodel Lula Landry did not commit suicide, but instead was murdered.
I really liked the characters of Strike and Robin. They had such a unique way of working together. I also loved the voice of Strike. He was really grumpy and rude at times, but he was also funny and definitely good at his job.
I had a hard time putting the book down. I really wanted to figure out what happened. Several times I thought I had it figured out, but I really didn't know what happened until the very end. I can't wait to read the next book in this series.
