The Casual Vacancy by J.K. Rowling (Author) 3.6 3.6 out of 5 stars 21,203 ratings 3.3 on Goodreads 329,792 ratingsGoodreads ChoiceAward winner
When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early forties, the little town of Pagford is left in shock.Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils…Pagford is not what it first seems.And the empty seat left by Barry on the town’s council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?
Apparently, Satchel isn’t aware that after finishing the Harry Potter saga, J.K. Rowling went on to write the great Cormoran Strike series of crime fiction novels under the pen name of Robert Galbraith.
