Шелкопряд

After the disappearance of writer Owen Quine, his wife turns to private investigator Cormoran Strike. Believing that her husband is simply hiding from his family, as has happened more than once, Leonora Quine instructs Strike to find the fugitive and return him to the bosom of the family.

But during the investigation, Strike realizes that the matter is much more serious than Leonora thinks. Owen Quine took with him the manuscript of a new novel, where he cast almost all his acquaintances, including very famous and influential people, in an unsightly light. The writer will ruin their destinies if he does not refuse publication. No wonder many would like to silence him.

A fascinating detective story with unexpected plot twists, The Silkworm is the second work in the series of novels about Cormoran Strike and his determined assistant Robin Ellacott.
