Publisher's Summary

THE BRAND NEW REBUS THRILLER FROM THE ICONIC NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER. ONE OF THE MUST-LSTENINOVELS OF THE YEAR.

'I loved it - Rebus is one of fiction's greatest creations' MARIAN KEYES

John Rebus stands accused: the once legendary detective is on trial, facing the rest of his life behind bars.

How does a hero turn villain?
Or have times changed, and the rules with them?

Detective Inspector Siobhan Clarke tackles Edinburgh's most explosive case in years, as a corrupt cop harbouring huge secrets goes missing.

But is her loyalty to the police or the public? And who can she trust when nobody is truly innocent - including her former mentor Rebus - and a killer walks among them?

As the time comes to choose sides, it becomes clear: after a lifetime of lies, the truth will break your heart...

Rebus fans won't want to miss this one!

I really enjoyed the story. I wasn't too sure about the narrator at first as I've enjoyed the Rebus series on TV and thought his voice should be a bit deeper, rougher. But aside from that, I enjoyed it quite a lot. Some very unexpected occurrences take place, so don't miss this one and don't read it out of turn.

A Heartline Full of Headstones

I disliked the heavy accent of the reader. It was difficult to concentrate on the audible book content due to the accent
