Hide & Seek. Rankin and Rebus - Number one bestsellers - An inspector Rebus Novel: 2
A junkie lies dead in a Edinburgh squat - spreadeagled, cross-like on the floor, between two burned-down candles, a five-pointed star daubed on the wall above. Just another dead addict, until John Rebus begins to chip away at the indifference, treachery, deceit and sleaze that lurks behind the façade of the Edinburgh familiar to the tourists. |
Only Rebus seems to care about a death which looks more like murder every day, about a seductive danger he can almost taste, appealing to the darkest corners of his mind.
'Rankin's ability to create a credible character, delivering convincing dialogue to complement sinister and hard-hitting plots against vividly detailed atmosphere, is simply awesome' TIME OUT
'Expose[s] brilliantly the sordid underface of outwardly respectable Edinburgh' THE TIMES
'Rankin ranks alongside P. D. James and Michael Dibdin as Britain's finest detective novelist' SCOTLAND ON SUNDAY |
