A review by berlinbibliophile
The Falls by Ian Rankin

4.0

It doesn't seem that long ago that this book was published, yet the advance in mobile technology has been enormous, and that makes the tech in this book, looking back, kind of hilarious. Nonetheless, Rankin tells a suspenseful story of a missing persons investigation turned murder inquiry. I liked the contrast between the history Rebus was working on and the high-tech (for the time) puzzles Siobhan was solving. It works well with their different approaches to policing.
While I was suspicious of a certain character from very early on, I didn't completely figure out the solution until it was there on the page, which I always appreciate. Over all an enjoyable mystery to read and figure out alongside Siobhan and Rebus.
