Health, Family & Lifestyle,Families & Parents,Fatherhood A Song for the Dark Times: The Brand New Must-Read Rebus Thriller by Ian Rankin From the iconic Number One bestseller Ian Rankin, comes one of the must-read books of the year: A SONG FOR THE DARK TIMES ‘Genius … Only great novels capture the spirit of the age. This is one of them.’THE TIMES * * * * * ‘He’s gone…’ When his daughter Samantha calls in the dead of night, John Rebus knows it’s not good news. Her husband has been missing for two days. Rebus fears the worst – and knows from his lifetime in the police that his daughter will be the prime suspect. He wasn’t the best father – the job always came first – but now his daughter needs him more than ever. But is he going as a father or a detective? As he leaves at dawn to drive to the windswept coast – and a small town with big secrets – he wonders whether this might be the first time in his life where the truth is the one thing he doesn’t want to find… PRAISE FOR A SONG FOR THE DARK TIMES: ‘Magnificent … utterly unputdownable and an immersive pleasure.’ MARIAN KEYES ‘This is Rankin at his best, Rebus at his best, storytelling that meets the moment and transcends all genres and expectations.’ MICHAEL CONNELLY ‘An outstanding addition to one of the finest bodies of work in crime fiction.’ MICK HERRON * * * * * PRAISE FOR THE ICONIC NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER: ‘Ian Rankin is a genius’ LEE CHILD ‘A master storyteller’ GUARDIAN ‘Rebus is one of British crime writing’s greatest characters: alongside Holmes, Poirot and Morse’ DAILY MAIL ‘Great fiction, full stop’ THE TIMES ‘One of Britain’s leading novelists in any genre’ NEW STATESMAN ‘Rankin is a phenomenon’ SPECTATOR ‘Worthy of Agatha Christie at her best’ SCOTSMAN ‘The king of crime fiction’ SUNDAY EXPRESS
- Like other reviewers, I’ve hugely enjoyed being back in Rebus land; he doesn’t let me down. I like Rankin’s commitment to real time and the development this brings to the main character, as well as those around him. A good dual plot-line, allowing Rebus to detect but not stretch credulity too much by having him somehow rejoin the polis. Have a soft spot for Brillo, too; is Rebus going soft in his old age? Somehow I doubt it.Ian Rankin is always a pleasure to read and this is no different, some going when into the 20+ Rebus; Interestingly, Rebus is apparently a Lee Child fan: Rankin’s Rebus is still far more alive and fresh than Jack Reacher. Give me Scotland over the USA anytime.
…..there’s no doubt that Rebus is now a ‘creaking gate’……he’s even had to move to a ground floor flat because he can’t cope with stairs and he reaches even more for the inhaler……but that old detective intuition will never leave him and he still strives as best he can to get the job done……this latest book by the great Ian Rankin is his best Rebus outing for a while, a real page turner……a couple of stories loosely intertwined provide a fantastic read…..it’s great to have Rebus,Siobhan,Fox and Cafferty back……!
