The second Inspector Rebus novel from the No.1 bestselling author of A SONG FOR THE DARK TIMES.'Ian Rankin is a genius'Lee ChildA junkie lies dead in an 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 facade of the Edinburgh familiar to tourists.Only Rebus seems to care about a death which looks more like a murder every day,about a seductive danger he can almost taste,appealing to the darkest corners of his mind...

MEDIA REVIEWS
There cannot be a better crime novelist writingRebus is a masterful creationIan Rankin is widely,and rightly,regarded as the leading male crime writer in BritainIan Rankin is a genius
Ian Rankin
Best know for his Rebusseries,they deliver hard-boiled crime with a distinct Scottish flavour- sometimes cheesily referred to as "Tartan Noir". DI John Rebus is an old-fashioned copper with a love of off-kilter music,and the odd refreshment.
