Representaion To Books The Falls (Inspector Rebus #12)

A student has gone missing in Edinburgh and there’s very little for Detective Inspector John Rebus to go on apart from his gut feeling that there’s more to this case than a runaway high on unaccustomed freedom.
Two leads emerge: a carved wooden doll in a tiny coffin and an Internet role playing game. Rebus concentrates on the coffin, eerily reminiscent of sixteen similar relics found on a hillside in 1836, leaving DC Siobhan Clarke to deal with the cyberspace Quizmaster. She’s young enough to navigate the net, but she may not have the experience to spot the pitfalls in a game where lives depend on split second timing. With Rebus buried two hundred years in the past, DC Clarke is going to need more than just luck to save both their skins — professional and personal

Rate Of Books The Falls (Inspector Rebus #12)

This is one of these series that give the illusion of extraordinary depth. That's because the characters, including the main character DI Rebus are meshed as one with the story. The people in this book are also meshed with their place of work.Here Gill Templer has taken over the rein as chief from her former boss, The Farmer. Gill was the ex girlfriend of John Rebus, if a one night stand can be alluded to that. She is prickly towards Rebus as she well knows that he is a loose cannon. They clash

Another great Rebus book, the mean moody and uncontrollable Scottish detective! Great storyline and characters once again, only what I expect from Ian Rankin. I would recommend this book.

Not my favourite Rebus novel as he investigates a missing girl and gets embroiled in cases involving coffins placed at the scene from previous years. Intriguing but a but slow for me and the ending was most predictable. Still an amazing series.

Edinburgh police detective John Rebus, Ian Rankin's popular series detective, is a brilliantly realized character, as moody, dark, and melancholy as Edinburgh itself. In The Falls, he's almost certain that missing university student Philippa Balfour is dead, but he's less sure how she died or what her misadventure has to do with the tiny doll in a hand-sized coffin that turns up near a waterfall on the Balfour family estate. It's not the first coffin found near the scene of a crime; could

THE FALLS VGRankin, Ian 12th in seriesThe disappearance of a female student, the discovery of a small wooden coffin, and an Internet role-playing game lead Rebus to wonder at the connection to 16 similar coffins found in 1836, and other previous disappearances. Rankin provides another very good procedural with diverse and interesting characters. A very well-done series.

Lots of good writing, with a strong emphasis on locale and character. John Rebus is one of my favorite characters in crime fiction. That said, I found the story predictable, and the ending was not a surprise. I'd even call it secondary if Rankin hadn't spent hundreds of convoluted pages trying to give the novel legs. The Falls is worth reading to see how Rankin continues to develop a wonderfully flawed character, as Rebus' own sense of mortality (he's now in his mid 50s) becomes increasingly

Another interesting Rebus book. I did figure out one of the killers fairly early on but it was still very gripping. Nothing gets past Rebus!I just didn't really get why he didn't seem to understand that Siobhan was pretty much assaulted in front of him. I love their relationship together.Very nice of Rebus to also step in for DS Wylie. And he isn't moving which is great as the location is really big part of the Rebus stories.I look forward to the next one.
