THE CUCKOO'S CALLING

First edition, first printing. Signed by the author. Publisher's original dark blue cloth with gilt titles to the spine, in dustwrapper. A fine copy, the binding square and firm, the contents clean throughout and without previous owner's inscriptions or stamps. Complete with the very near fine original first state dustwrapper that has a tiny closed tear to the lower rear flap fold. Not price-clipped (£16.99 to the front flap).

Signed by the author as Robert Galbraith in black ink on the title page. One of only 250 copies of the first edition that were signed by the author before news of the pseudonym was leaked, all of which were retailed by Goldsboro Books in London. This example was originally purchased by us, and sold in October 2013; now reacquired and offered for the second time. The first Cormoran Strike novel; adapted for the popular BBC television series starring Tom Burke and Holliday Grainger.
