Rebus carries on

Back into a Rebus, I haven't read any for a while and stumbled on this one somewhere. I always enjoy them, perhaps this one more because I haven't read any for a while - although I did feel I needed to keep a list of all the characters on a bit of paper for reference

None

Good to see that even post-retirement Rebus is getting in there, hanging around the police station perhaps a bit too much and forgetting he is no longer technically a cop - but being a police officer is something you are, not something you do and his connections are still there also (i.e. knowing all the local drug dealers and being able to make connections). Liking Siobhan as the police lead in this as well. And of course Rebus has a dog - it's called Brillo which means you don't need to describe it further.
