The Falls by Ian Rankin

3.0

I haven't read Rebus in quite a while and can't remember why I picked up this one, but I'm glad I did. Good: the Edinburgh setting revisits many of the places I've been to and plan to visit again this summer; the mysterious tiny coffins found on Arthur's Seat (part of the mystery here) are always worth a visit to the National Museum of Scotland; and the characterizations are stellar (Rebus, trust Jane's spidey sense about the bad guy). Drawbacks for me were the slow pace, up until the last few chapters, and a bagginess to the prose that made some of it slow going.
