Exit Music



I've finished Exit Music by Ian Rankin the last in the Rebus series?? I hope not. Rebus is days away from his retirement and hopes to crack the murder of a Russian poet before then. He continues to be a thorn in the side of management right till the end as he struggles to find a motive and a murderer. When other attacks point to a connection to the Russian and Scottish MPs, as well as Rebus' nemesis Big Ger Cafferty, things get really interesting. Siobhan Clarke brings in a young rookie, Todd Goodyear, to help out and he is also tenuously connected to some of the characters involved in the murders/attacks. Rebus must solve the case while contemplating his future post-retirement. 4/5.
