JK Rowling's novel The Cuckoo's Calling is being adapted by BBC One.
The writer published the crime novel in 2013 under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith. It was marketed as Galbraith's debut novel and follows an investigation into the supposed suicide of a model in London.
It's the first in the Cormoran Strike series of detective novels, with the sequel The Silkworm being released earlier this year.
Danny Cohen, Director of BBC Television, said: "It's a wonderful coup for BBC Television to be bringing JK Rowling's latest books to the screen.
"With the rich character of Cormoran Strike at their heart, these dramas will be event television across the world."
