JK Rowling has recently released her latest book in the Cormoran Strike series, The Ink Black Heart, but you won't see her name emblazoned on the cover. Instead, the Harry Potter author has again gone in disguise as Robert Galbraith.
When Robert Galbraith's debut novel, A Cuckoo's Calling, was released in April 2013, it sold 1,500 copies. Curious about the identity of the mysterious crime writer, an alleged military man, many began digging and it wasn't long before he was unmasked as being a pen name.
The Sunday Times ultimately "outed" the author as being the pseudonym of JK Rowling, author of Harry Potter. But it left many fans asking, why Robert Galbraith?
