What is the name of J.K. Rowling’s crime-fiction detective series published under a pseudonym?

J.K. Rowling’s crime-fiction detective series published under a pseudonym is the Cormoran Strike series.

The books feature Cormoran Strike, a private detective, and his business partner Robin Ellacott. Rowling initially published the novels under the pseudonym Robert Galbraith. The first book, The Cuckoo’s Calling, appeared in 2013 and introduced Strike as he investigates the death of model Lula Landry.

The series uses contemporary London and other British settings rather than the magical world of Harry Potter. Its mysteries are structured as adult crime novels, with recurring attention to investigation, evidence, professional relationships, and the personal histories of Strike and Ellacott.

The pseudonym was publicly revealed in 2013 after the author’s identity became known. Robert Galbraith is therefore not a separate author behind the series. The books are commonly described as the Cormoran Strike novels or series, while television adaptations were produced under the title Strike.
