I second and (third and fourth) this judgment. Such talent.

Rowling crime novels written under the name Robert Galbraith are surprisingly good -  old fashioned English who-done-it with a war-crippled (Afghanistan) detective and his side-kick.  The Silkworm (#2) has a literary theme with the publishing industry as the setting. There are lots of allusions, references, in-jokes, etc. relating to literature as well as a mad author as victim.
