A Must Have For Any Ian Rankin Fan !! ~ A BEAUTIFUL AUTOGRAPHED TRUE FIRST EDITION FOR COLLECTORS ~ Reviews "A brutal but beautifully written series....Rankin pushes the procedural form well past conventional genre limits." --The New York Times Book Review "A dark and gritty read that never disappoints. Rankin's character development is first-rate and the dialogue rings true. Somehow, Rankin adeptly juggles seemingly disparate plot lines into a realistic tale of war against organized crime." --San Francisco Chronicle/Examiner "The progenitor--and king--of tartan noir." --James Ellroy "Ian Rankin's brilliant series featuring John Rebus is the kind of blistering police procedural that gives the genre a good name." --Entertainment Weekly "Crime fiction at its best." --The Washington Post Book World "An excellent series....Rankin [has a] strong heart and an unerring ability to succinctly sum up complex emotions....His craft and sullen art keep it all bubbling." -The Chicago Tribune "Rankin's dexterity in juggling plots and threats and motives lights up the darkness with a poet's grace. Reading him is like watching somebody juggle a dozen bottles of single malt without spilling a drop." --Kirkus Reviews "A novelist of great scope, depth, and power....Brilliant." --Jonathan Kellerman "Hard-drinking, hard-living Rebus remains a compelling figure." --Kirkus Reviews "Rankin [creates] a drum-tight characterization of Rebus as a man deeply shaken by his convictions, but unwilling to fall apart." --Publishers Weekly Description A colleague's suicide. Pedophiles. A missing child. A serial killer. Driven by instinct and experience, John Rebus searches for connections, against official skepticism. Soldiering through dank, desperate slums and the tony flats of the Scottish elite, Inspector Rebus uncovers a chain of crime, deceit, and hidden sins--knowing it's reallly himself he's trying to save.
