Critics Review

‘Fast, slick and exciting’ – William Leith EVENING STANDARD ‘Inspector Rebus is absent from Ian Rankin’s latest thriller but Edinburgh is as important a character as ever. Rankin expertly portrays the gang’s different personalities as the plot thickens and darkens’ SUNDAY TELEGRAPH ‘The unravelling of the plan shows the author at his best: while the trio’s motives for risking jail sometimes stretch credulity, the inexorable growth of mistrust within the gang is expertly and convincingly traced’ – John Dugdale SUNDAY TIMES ‘This is Rankin’s first stand-alone thriller for more than a decade. When two friends devise a plan to steal some of the world’s most valuable artwork, their only option is to make it look like no crime has been committed’ EDINBURGH EVE NEWS ‘Fast, slick and exciting’ LONDON LITE ‘This is not Rebus, but it’s fast, slick and exciting’ THE SCOTSMAN
