A young man’s misadventures from privileged Connecticut to the Wild West and back make for “an entertaining romp through the American 1870s” (Publishers Weekly). Sick and restless, Edward Turrentine Bayard III leaves his Connecticut home in 1871 to recover in a private sanitarium out west. But when his destination proves to be nothing more than a rickety outpost on the Nebraskan plains, he becomes a buffalo skinner instead. After returning East, Ned teams up with a lady cigar-roller named Phaegin, and Curly, a fourteen-year-old coal miner. But soon enough, the newfound trio is wrongly accused of triggering a bomb at a labor rally, and they must flee. With a Pinkerton agent following their every move, the winsome ne’er-do-wells embark on a circuitous escape through northern outposts into Indian country, past the slums of Chicago, and into the boundless Great Plains. En route they become witness to the transformation and growing pains of a burgeoning nation in this comic, picaresque, and prescient look at the growth of an individual and a country. “Warren knows how to spin a tale.” —Booklist

Private investigator Cormoran Strike must track down a missing writer -- and a sinister killer bent on destruction -- in this "wonderfully entertaining" mystery (Harlan Coben, New York Times Book Review) that inspired the acclaimed HBO Max series C.B. Strike. When novelist Owen Quine goes missing, his wife calls in private detective Cormoran Strike. At first, Mrs. Quine just thinks her husband has gone off by himself for a few days -- as he has done before -- and she wants Strike to find him and bring him home. But as Strike investigates, he discovers that Quine's disappearance is no coincidence. The novelist has just completed a manuscript featuring poisonous pen-portraits of almost everyone he knows. If the novel were published, it would ruin lives -- meaning that almost everyone in his life would have motives to silence him. When Quine is found brutally murdered under bizarre circumstances, Strike must race against time to understand the motivation of a ruthless killer, a killer unlike any he has encountered before . . . A compulsively readable crime novel with twists at every turn, The Silkworm is the second in J. K. Rowling's highly acclaimed series featuring Cormoran Strike and his determined young assistant, Robin Ellacott.
