Which pseudonym did J.K. Rowling use for the novel The Running Grave?

J.K. Rowling used the pseudonym Robert Galbraith for The Running Grave. Published in 2023, it is the seventh novel in the Cormoran Strike detective series.

The novel follows private investigator Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott as they investigate a secretive religious organization. As with the earlier books, the story is credited to Robert Galbraith rather than to Rowling on its cover.

Rowling began using the Galbraith name in 2013 with The Cuckoo’s Calling. Her authorship was revealed later that year, but she continued publishing the series under the pseudonym as a distinct author identity.

The title should not be confused with a character name. Cormoran Strike is the detective, Robin Ellacott is his investigative partner, and Robert Galbraith is the author name used for the books.
