This is a very good first novel, but laced with a lot of old-fashioned melodrama. I found the SAS/torture-as-training interlude to be very implausible. I'm eager to see where Rankin takes this character in future books.
Slow on the uptake
cranks letters, shifty brother
surviving on cigs.
An enjoyable fast paced. Loved the Edinburg setting and John Rebus. Keen to read more of this series and see how the Rebus character develops.
