Description

The uncorrected proof of the first UK edition of this mystery by J. K. Rowling. Very good in wrappers and a fine custom-made collector's slipcase. The book was critically well received, but then became a smash bestseller when the true identity of the author was inadvertently revealed by Rowling's attorney. One must assume the printing on the first UK edition, and especially this advanced proof, was tiny compared to a typical Rowling offering.

About The Cuckoo's Calling

A brilliant debut mystery in a classic vein: Detective Cormoran Strike investigates a supermodel's suicide.
