    I have all the Rebus books and like almost every one except the first one. This is a book you can pick up and read over a weekend.

    Very enjoyable, I didn't want to put it down!

    A crime thriller set in Edinburgh, quite fast paced with a couple of absorbing story lines being told alongside one another. Gritty.
    I have read a number of Ian Rankin's books, mostly with Rebus as the main character, I have found them all to be a great read.
    Check out Rebus on DVD too (Ken Stott does a brilliant job portraying Rebus)... and on the plus side they keep pretty true to the books.

    Top notch entertainment

    All the Rebus novels are page turners. Rebus as a character is so real, and so well defined, you find yourself wondering what he's doing this summer and if you shouldn't send him an interesting CD.

    Rebus. A homestyle policeman.the truth and nothing but the truth

    I read each novel with the knowledge of Edinburgh, the stories seem true to life, the dialect as is. Ian Rankin has created a policeman of true nature to Edinburgh, each novel is a must read, and if you lay it down, make sure you remember where you put it..do not loose it.
