The Silkworm is about Cormoran Strike's investigation into the disappearance of a seemingly eccentric writer.

Cormoran Strike got a lot more darker on this one. Unfortunately, the book seemed formulaic-ally Rowling, as in recycling the first book with a different theme. The characters were decently built, but the charm of the story waned with time as it became somewhat repetitive. However, it was still a good enough book to read for a modern mystery novel.
