Review

'From macabre suburban murders to the criminal trail of Inspector REbus' Edinburgh, these sinister tales won't disappoint' (VOYAGER )

'Ian Rankin has amassed a thumping portfolio of short stories - all every bit as good as his hugely successful novels' (BELFAST TELEGRAPH )

'The range and the overall quality of this collection is impressive (OBSERVER )

'Whether you're a diehard fan of Edinburgh's most famous fictional detective, or one of the few who've yet to experience the mastery of Rankin, you'll find all the elements of compulsive reading - great twist and inventiveness so engrossing it's sunburn waiting to happen' (DAILY RECORD )

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing, 27 Jun 2009
By L. Goodyear "film fan" (Glasgow, Scotland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having worked my way through the entire Rebus catalogue since Christmas, I was looking forward to finishing up with a different style of story. I normally enjoy short stories and couldn't wait to dive in. I could not have been more disappointed: the stories were incredibly predictable which came as a shock after the intricacies of the Rebus novels. Even the Rebus stories were uninspired and the novella which was the main impetus for me to purchase this book was a slight reworking of one of the novels, retold from a slightly different perspective! Rankin is not the first author to bundle together short stories for an easy sell but I feel that these works fall far short of his normal excellent standard.
