Book Overview: Ian Rankin's previous novel, EXIT MUSIC, went straight to No.1 on the Sunday Times bestseller list. With echoes of OCEAN'S 11 and THE THOMAS CROWN AFFAIR, and set in a very different Edinburgh to that inhabited by DI John Rebus, this new thriller shows a whole new side to Ian Rankin. Ian has become a major player in the life of the UK. As well as his bestselling novels, he has a high profile as a cultural commentator in the press and on TV. Ian Rankin is a regular No. 1 bestseller and Guardian fastseller. He has won numerous awards, including the CWA Diamond Dagger and GQ Author of the Year, and received an OBE. He always receives widespread media coverage and terrific reviews: '[His] consistent level of excellence is unmatched in the field of British crime fiction' The Times. 'There cannot be a better crime novelist writing' Daily Mail. 'Rankin is a master of his craft' Independent on Sunday.
Prizes: Shortlisted for Theakston's Old Peculier Crime Novel of the Year 2010.
