labeet 's review for:

3.0

I'm rather fond of Rankin, but actually prefer his new detective, Fox, to Rebus. Fox appears in this novel, but not really recognisable from the Fox novels. Obviously, he's viewed from Rebus' POV, but still!
The plot is not bad, but I've seen far better than this from Rankin's hand. Slightly disappointed here.
Luckily, I did not give up and continued directly on to Saints of the Shadow Bible.
