About this deal

Seventh Strike novel to publish this September, in the tenth anniversary year of the bestselling series by Robert Galbraith. The Silkworm is Book 2 in the Cormoran Strike series. Strike’s newest case is to find a novelist that has disappeared, Owen Quine. Quine’s wife hires Strike because she wants her husband to come home, but she just suspects he’s off on his own as he is wont to do. The book ends as Robin, about to leave with Ryan Murphy, asks Strike about Charlotte and he tells Robin that Charlotte knew he was in love with Robin.

Allen, Ben (30 August 2017). "JK Rowling could write 'at least another 10' Strike books as Robert Galbraith". Radio Times. Archived from the original on 24 May 2018 . Retrieved 23 May 2018. The fifth season of Strike drew in eight million viewers for its premiere in December 2022 and averaged 6.9 million viewers throughout its four-part series. There are few pleasures richer than knowing a new Robert Galbraith thriller is on the way! Seven novels into the Cormoran Strike series, J.K. Rowling keeps expanding her already peerless skills in crafting drama, emotion, urgency, and capturing the infinite complexities of the human spirit—in dark and in light.’ Michael Pietsch, Chief Executive Officer, Hachette Book Group.It’s been brilliant to see the enormous success of the Robert Galbraith books over the past ten years and an honour to publish them. With over 11 million copies sold in the English language to date, the story of Strike and Robin has captured readers’ imaginations and, like so many others, I can’t wait to see what happens to them over the course of the final four books in the series.’ David Shelley, Group Chief Executive, Hachette UK

His journey dealing with dangerous crime cases, spiced by his challenging life, engages the reader throughout the books. The books are a mixture of medium-intensity mysteries with a lot of character development and a hint of long-game romance. The Silkworm is a bit gruesome in places, but for the most part, they're somewhere in the middle of the “cosy-gritty” spectrum. Robin goes undercover at the UHC and finds much unlawful activity and speaks to Will. She learns that he was not informed of his mother's death and that he has fathered a daughter inside the church. Potterheads (fans of Harry Potter) and book readers everywhere are well aware of the series’ world-famous author, J.K. Rowling. But did you know that Robert Galbraith is a penname for none other than Rowling herself?The ability to write something new and different without the hype of her name allowed her to remove stress from the process of writing a novel. Of course, Galbraith’s identity didn’t stay secret for long or we still wouldn’t know about it today. So the obvious question becomes, why did J.K. Rowling write as Robert Galbraith instead of herself? As you might already suspect, the answer is that she didn’t want the pressure of writing as Rowling. With the wide-spread success of Harry Potter, certain expectations are placed upon Rowling for any book she publishes. Robin and her business partner, Cormoran Strike, become drawn into the quest to uncover Anomie’s true identity. But with a complex web of online aliases, business interests and family conflicts to navigate, Strike and Robin find themselves embroiled in a case that stretches their powers of deduction to the limits – and which threatens them in new and horrifying ways . . . They're especially good for those who enjoy LONG reads with a lot of personal life and character/world building along the way. If you like a pure procedural or puzzle mystery, they may not be for you. He's a bit of a mess, but he's talented, dedicated, and determined to make a success of the business. Unlike many classic male detectives, it's easy to like Cormoran Strike. When Robin Ellacott enters the picture, she's essentially the missing piece in his life – though neither of them realise it.

For those who love crime fiction, the Cormoran Strike novel series will keep you entertained throughout. The story revolves around detective Cormoran Strike. He is a retired military soldier who is broke and wounded when he starts a PI company. Strike's uncle Ted becomes increasingly unwell with dementia. Strike ends his affair with Bijou after she falls pregnant by a wealthy QC and, after calling him several times to no response, his ex, Charlotte, kills herself.Sullivan, Kevin P. (24 September 2015). "New details about J.K. Rowling's BBC series revealed". Entertainment Weekly . Retrieved 9 December 2015. Samuel 'Sam' Barclay: A Scottish subcontractor who begins working with the agency in the fourth novel. A former soldier who was investigated and exonerated by Strike during his time in the SIB, Barclay has no formal investigative experience, but Strike considers him to be intelligent and of strong personal conviction. While accepting harsh working hours without much complaint, Barclay also occasionally assists the partners on unusual jobs where Strike's disability limits his effectiveness. Fans of JK Rowling's Cormoran Strike series (written as Robert Galbraith) have been re-reading the series and eagerly awaiting news of the latest book in the series – and as of today, June 30th, that news has arrived.
