The cuckoo's calling

The cuckoo's calling / Robert Galbraith, read by Robert Glenister, 455 pgs.

The first in a series about private investigator Cormaran Strike, a veteran of war in Afghanistan who lost a part of his leg and it now trying to make it back in London.  His love life is a mess, he is in debt and the temp agency has sent a replacement even though he tried to cancel his contract.  Robin, his erstwhile temp turns out to be the best thing that has happen to him in ages.  They end up working closely together on the death of a celebrity fashion model.  The cops think it was suicide, but her family thinks it could be murder. Strike pieces together the story and we are with him the entire way.  Exciting and intricate, I will certainly continue with this series.
