A compulsively readable crime novel with twists at every turn, The
Silkworm is the second in the highly acclaimed series featuring Cormoran
Strike and his determined young assistant Robin Ellacott.
When novelist Owen Quine goes missing, his wife calls in private
detective Cormoran Strike. At first, she just thinks he 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 realises. The novelist has just completed a
manuscript featuring poisonous pen-portraits of almost everyone he
knows. If the novel were published it would ruin lives - so there are a lot of
people who might want to silence him.
ROBERT GALBRAITH es el seudónimo de J. K. Rowling, autora de la serie Harry Potter y de Una vacante imprevista.
