A dear friend brought me back to my beloved Edinburgh ...By LuyckxA dear friend brought me back to my beloved Edinburgh. His name? Rebus, the hard nosed ex-police detective. He told me a gripping story...Ian Rankin did a splendid job - again. He really is the master of atmosphere and dialogue. A must read.What's more, Rankin brought the contrasting characters of Rebus and Fox together. If he is planning to phase Rebus out, Fox is ready to take his place... Very canny indeed.6 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Days Of YoreBy prisrobThis is the 20th book featuring John Rebus, ex DI, he has been in retirement for three book years. The 17th book was the last of Rebus. It seems Ian Rankin, the author, had run out of Rebus stories. But, his audience of fans were so disappointed, and Rankin so missed Rebus that he found Rebus was needed in Scotland and in Edinburgh in particular.In this novel Rebus's mentee, DI Siobhan Clarke, is on the move, she loves her job as much as Rebus did, and she is almost as good as Rebus. A murder of a Lord Advocate, a chief legal officer in the government, occurs, and Siobhan has found a note that implicates someone unknown. Clarke is working qwith another friend we know DI Malcom Fox. Clarke and Fox have formed a friendship, and my thought is that during the next couple of books, Clarke and Fox play footsie.Fox is assigned to work with a new undercover police group who are following known criminals in the area. This group plays fast and loose, and Fox has difficulty with their actions. At the same time, Clarke calls Rebus to see if he can intervene with his old adversary Big Ger Cafferty. Cafferty has had his home broken into and his life is in danger. Rebus becomes a consultant, and this is the most unbelievable part of this novel. What police department brings in a retired detective who broke most of the rules. Well, a department that needs someone who knows all the criminal elements.This novel was well paced, had too many storylines, but brought back the oldies that we remember from days of yore. Rebus, we love ya.Recommended. prisrob 01-20-168 of 8 people found the following review helpful. I'm a fan of Rebus and love the gritty Edinburgh settingsBy Slobodanka GrahamI'm a fan of Rebus and love the gritty Edinburgh settings. In this title, Rankin allies Rebus with his arch-enemy Big Ger, which makes for an interesting tension. I liked the fact that Malcolm Fox also has a significant role to play. The writing rocks and rolls you along. I think this is one of the best in the series. Can't wait for the next one. A Boston Globe Best Mystery of the YearRebus comes out of retirement...to save his nemesis.Detective Inspector Siobhan Clarke is feeling the heat. She's investigating the death of a senior government prosecutor, David Minton, who has friends in high places. When one of their own is killed, the powers that be want answers fast. But Clarke is puzzled: if Minton died in a robbery as everyone thinks, why is nothing missing from his home? The answer may lie not in what was taken, but in what was left behind at the scene--an ominous note. Malcolm Fox is feeling useless. Shunned by his colleagues because of his past in the Complaints bureau, he's been reassigned to a grunt detail, helping a surveillance team--one that trusts him even less than his own boss does--track a notorious Glasgow crime family. Helping Clarke with the Minton case is the only thing that makes Fox feel like a real cop. Newly minted civilian John Rebus is feeling restless. Being a cop is in his blood and he's failing miserably at retirement. So when Clarke and Fox ask for his help, Rebus doesn't need long to consider his options. But before he can get his bearings, a call comes from Rebus's old nemesis--"Big Ger" Cafferty. Someone just fired a bullet through his front window--and sent him a note identical to Minton's. The normally unflappable old gangster is on edge, but for the life of him Cafferty can't figure out who he's wronged. And the only man he trusts with his life is Rebus. As the cases collide, it's up to Clarke, Fox, and Rebus to connect the dots and save their unlikely ally Cafferty, whose past harbors a shocking secret that implicates Minton's friends in an unspeakable crime. Even Dogs in the Wild reunites crime fiction legend Ian Rankin's greatest characters in an explosive story exploring the darkest corners of our desires. Praise for EVEN DOGS IN THE WILD:A "twisty, darkly topical, and immaculately executed tale of Edinburgh's underbelly."?The Guardian"It is sensational...this story truly sings."?Vick Mickunas, Dayton Daily News "Rankin is a past master of atmospheric, dark crime fiction, and in Even Dogs in the Wild, his 31st book, he's in top form."?Collette Bancroft, Tampa Bay Times"As always, Rankin delivers some fascinating procedural details, but the heart of the book--and its main appeal to crime-fiction readers--lies in the evolving personal relationships between the three cops and one bad guy. The switching of roles between Rebus and Clark continues to intrigue, but even better is the transformation of Fox from a behind-the-scenes guy...into a real cop working the mean streets."?Booklist"It's always intriguing to follow Rebus around the city and country he loves, and for those who have followed his long career the pleasures are even richer."?Michele Ross, The Cleveland Plain Dealer "Rankin's procedurals are strong, well- constructed, page-turning mysteries, and his latest is no exception." ?San Francisco Chronicle About the AuthorIan Rankin is an internationally #1 bestselling novelist and the recipient of an Edgar Award, a Gold Dagger for fiction, and the Chandler-Fulbright Award. He lives in Edinburgh, Scotland, with his wife and two sons.
