Summary

THE BRAND NEW REBUS THRILLER FROM THE ICONIC NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER. ONE OF THE MUST-LSTEN INOVELS OF THE YEAR.

'I loved it - Rebus is one of fiction's greatest creations' MARIAN KEYES

John Rebus stands accused: the once legendary detective is on trial, facing the rest of his life behind bars.

How does a hero turn villain?
Or have times changed, and the rules with them?

Detective Inspector Siobhan Clarke tackles Edinburgh's most explosive case in years, as a corrupt cop harbouring huge secrets goes missing.

But is her loyalty to the police or the public? And who can she trust when nobody is truly innocent - including her former mentor Rebus - and a killer walks among them?

As the time comes to choose sides, it becomes clear: after a lifetime of lies, the truth will break your heart...

Is this the end for John Rebus, I still don’t know! I’m hoping there will be another book to find out what happens next.

Swan song

Absolutely first class in terms of the story line and its execution by James McPherson. Ian Rankin is a master in his field and I continually wonder at his ability to knit incredible stories around the ageing John Rebus. Simply brilliant.

Outstanding, as always.

Fantastic book that I tried to drag out as much as possible so it would last, but it was just too good to sit on for too long. Nothing to say about the narration really, still the best. I have McPherson's (Rebus) voice in my ears first thing when I wake up and last thing before I fall asleep. Now I have to figure out a way to survive until the next book.

What a story!
