Description
The Naming of the Dead by Ian Rankin is a gripping mystery that delves into the darker side of human nature. When a murder takes place, the initial reaction is one of indifference, given the victim's history as a rapist recently released from prison. However, Detective Inspector John Rebus and DS Siobhan Clarke soon uncover evidence suggesting a serial killer is on the loose. As Rebus investigates further, he becomes embroiled in a complex web of politics and corruption, with his bosses warning him to stay out of a high-profile case involving an MP's apparent suicide. But Rebus has never been one to follow the rules, and when Siobhan's personal reasons for pursuing a riot cop lead her to cross paths with Rebus, it becomes clear that both are in over their heads. With the G8 leaders gathering in Scotland, tensions run high, and Rebus finds himself at odds with his own side. This tense and thought-provoking novel is a worthwhile read for fans of crime fiction.
