Midnight and Blue: An Inspector Rebus Novel by Ian Rankin Hardcover Book

Description: Midnight and Blue by Ian Rankin John Rebus spent his life as a cop putting Edinburghs most deadly criminals behind bars. Now having been convicted of a homicide, hes joined them... A convict is brutally murdered in his locked cell deep in the heart of Scotlands most infamous prison. Sleeping in a cell across the floor lies John Rebus, the equally notorious detective. Stripped of his badge and estranged from his police family, he is now fighting for his own life - protected by an old nemesis but always one wrong move away from the shank. As new allies and old enemies circle, and the days and nights bleed into each other, even this legendary figure struggles to keep his head. They say old habits die hard, though. The death stirs Rebuss deductive - and manipulative - impulses, setting off a domino-chain of scheming criminals, corrupt prison guards and perhaps only one or two good souls who may see it all through. But how do you find a killer in a place full of them? FORMAT Hardcover CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Ian Rankin is a #1 international bestselling author.

Review "Ian Rankin has become not just a master of the crime/mystery genre but one of the best in the world at what he does. His long-running and immensely popular series featuring Inspector John Rebus is legendary . . . MIDNIGHT AND BLUE is yet another classic from this iconic author."--Ray Palen, BookReporter"[Rebus] remains Scotlands gift to the world of crime fiction, and readers wont ever let Ian Rankin forget it."--Michael McCann, New York Journal of Books"Rankin is in top form as he reinvents his flawed hero by having him navigate an equally flawed milieu . . . [Midnight and Blue] must be one of the most original locked-room mysteries ever."--Bruce Tierney, BookPage"An ingenious double locked-room mystery . . . Theres maximum suspense as Rebus tries to solve a murder that might be followed by his own. A terrific addition to the Rebus series."--Booklist (starred review)"The special appeal of the entry in this celebrated series is its vividly detailed portrait of the labyrinthine corridors of power in the prison, where everything is available for a price, and its unsettling connections to the corridors of power outside. Its inspiring to see that prison, along with the rotten system it represents, hasnt gotten Rankins battered hero down."--Kirkus Reviews, Editors Pick Details ISBN0316473855 Publisher Mulholland Books Year 2024 ISBN-13 9780316473859 Format Hardcover Publication Date 2024-10-15 Imprint Mulholland Books Subtitle An Inspector Rebus Novel Audience General Pages 352 Author Ian Rankin DEWEY 823.914 We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
