Exit Music
Book description
It's late autumn in Edinburgh and late autumn in the career of Detective Inspector John Rebus. As he tries to tie up some loose ends before retirement, a murder case intrudes. A dissident Russian poet has been found dead in what looks like a mugging gone wrong. By apparent coincidence…
Why read it?
1 author picked Exit Music as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
An old favourite that I re-read on a train journey.
It should have been the last of Rankin’s Rebus novels, with the eponymous policeman retiring at the end of the story, although the author revived him a few years later. It is the usual mixture of mayhem and a little mystery set in the underworld of Edinburgh, with the usual protagonists.
Re-reading any of the Rebus books is like curling up under a warm blanket. You know what is going to happen, but you are happy, to mix the metaphor, to go along for the ride.
