THE CUCKOO'S CALLING-J. K. ROWLING

J.K. Rowling reveals she published a new crime novel
in April titled ‘The Cuckoo’s Calling’ under pseudonym
Harry Potter and The Casual Vacancy author J.K.
Rowling has revealed that she wrote a crime novel
titled The Cuckoo’s Calling under a pseudonym.
Rowling operated under the name Robert Galbraith to
publish The Cuckoo’s Calling in April of this year.

The Daily Posts received confirmation from the author
as well as a statement. “I had hoped to keep this
secret a little longer because being Robert Galbraith
has been such a liberating experience,” said Rowling.
“It has been wonderful to publish without hype or
expectation and pure pleasure to get feedback under a
different name.”

The author’s biography is as hilarious as this news
that’s been kept secret from us for several months. It
reads,

“After several years with the Royal Military
Police, Robert Galbraith was attached to the SIB
(Special Investigative Branch), the plain-clothes branch
of the RMP. He left the military in 2003 and has been
working since then in the civilian security industry. The
idea for Cormoran Strike grew directly out of his own
experiences and those of his military friends who
returned to the civilian world. ‘Robert Galbraith’ is a
pseudonym.”

The book is available right now on Amazon and
currently has a nearly 5-star rating.
Says the book’s official synopsis found on Amazon:

A brilliant debut mystery in a classic vein:
Detective Cormoran Strike investigates a
supermodel’s suicide.
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, and
creditors are calling. He has also just broken up
with his longtime girlfriend and is living in his
office.
Then John Bristow walks through his door with an
amazing story: His sister, thelegendary 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.
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.
