Strike: The Silkworm

Two-part BBC drama based on the novel by J.K. Rowling. This instalment follows struggling private detective Cormoran Strike (Tom Burke) as he is hired by Leonora Quine (Monica Dolan) to find her missing husband, the controversial writer Owen Quine (Jeremy Swift). Using his skills as a former Royal Military Special Investigation Branch investigator, Strike discovers Owen's brutally dismembered body and traces clues from the manuscript of his latest novel 'Bombyx Mori'. The police determine Leonora to be the killer but Strike is convinced they have the wrong suspect and begins investigating Owen's other acquaintances, as detailed in his last work, and finds himself scouring the world of London's literary establishment in search of the real killer.
