I love the writing , the story , the crime. Set in London , usually set in Edinburgh & the MC is Rebus. I havnt been so taken with a crime series sinse Wallander. It‘s believable , it‘s grounded, there‘s real talk & places going on. I‘m excited to find a series of this quality, top class. Thrilled to have given it a go , Thankyou Litten friends for your reviews on this series. I‘ve the next one ready to go ..... and the next one ! Obsessed
Bit strange reading about Rebus in London and I was a bit hesitant at first. But turns into a good serial killer chase.
Some of the language felt a bit dated, but overall loving the series so far.
Rebus , book number 3 .... Rebus is in London , hunting down a serial killer. Excellent stuff ... looking forward to settling in for the evening , perfect 👌🏻
This is the 3rd book in the Inspector Rebus series, and it was awesome! It got back to the type of mystery represented in the 1st book of the series, and was so much better than the 2nd book. Again, there are many flawed characters and the London police have strong feelings about Scotland. Our “hero” being from Edinburgh, this adds to the difficulties surrounding the solving of this case. It had me guessing right up to the end. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Any UK fans of Ian Rankin out there? 5 of his books are #99ponkindle today but be warned that they're not in series/consecutive order!
Rebus is away from his customary patch of Edinburgh and working a serial killer case in London. Fortunately, the trip south does nothing to soften his natural abrasiveness and he is soon ruffling feathers among his new colleagues in the Met. Rankin went on to write much better novels than this one, but there is a special pleasure in seeing the growth of a well-loved character and the last fifty pages or so fairly rattle along.
This is the third in the Inspector Rebus series, a series which I like to read in between all other books. I didn't like this installment much though. It was no real pageturner and I don't like it when I couldn't have guessed the murderer.
It just has to be the Wolfman persona from the Ian Rankin book Tooth and Nail as my choice for #wolves #junetunz He is called Wolfman because he takes a bite out of his victims, and because the first victim was found in Wolf Street in the East End of London. This is one of my favourite Rebus books, hilarious at points with Rebus helping out in London. This has also been published as Wolfman. A great end scene to the book! Thoroughly recommend.
