A synopsis of the initial plot details revealed by publisher Sphere Books said: 'The police initially believe it [the body] to be that of a convicted armed robber – but not everyone agrees with that theory. 'One of them is Decima Mullins, who calls on the help of private detective Cormoran Strike as she is certain the body in the silver vault was that of her boyfriend – the father of her newborn baby – who suddenly and mysteriously disappeared.

The silver shop is no ordinary one: it is located beside Freemasons' Hall and specialises in Masonic silverware. And in addition to the armed robber and Decima's boyfriend, it becomes clear that there are other missing men who could fit the profile of the body in the vault. 'As the case becomes ever more complicated and dangerous, Strike faces another quandary. Robin seems increasingly committed to her boyfriend, policeman Ryan Murphy, but the impulse to declare his own feelings for her is becoming stronger than ever.' Galbraith is the pseudonym for Ms Rowling - the author of the hugely-popular Harry Potter Series. Tom Burke and Holliday Grainger star as Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott respectively in the Strike TV series Seven books have previously been published in the Strike series, including The Cuckoo's Calling and The Silkworm. The series has been adapted for television, produced by Brontë Film & TV, starring Tom Burke and Holliday Grainger in the leading roles. The series is broadcast by the BBC in the UK.
