The Cuckoo's Calling

Robert Galbraith
Tommy CollisonTommy Collison

Took a break from Montaigne and read “The Cuckoo’s Calling,” by Robert Galbraith, which is about as good an entry to the mystery genre as you’re likely to find this century. Galbraith, it turns out, is the pen-name of none other than JK Rowling.
