Maverick investigator John Rebus gains dangerous enemies upon reopening a cold case from the 1970s involving the murder of a wealthy socialite.
This feels very much like squeezing a little more out of a well wrung out towel. Rebus is pulled back into the action and seems able to go and do whatever he likes despite no longer being in the 'polis'. Strained my credibility. The ending seems rushed and a cop out.
Really enjoyed this one, after finding some of the other recent Rebus novels a bit of a sameness. Perhaps its just that I've had a break from reading them, anyway, very enjoyable and very much got the feel of the characters at all of their various stages of life
Ah Ian Check yer pacing, all too rushed.
I hadnt read a Rebus book for some time and didnt realise how much I enjoyed them.
This time with Malcolm Fox in the mix, we have a classic Rebus story that effortlessly follows on from the earlier series. Almost made better by his retirement and exclusion from the police force
