Rankin creatively brings together his 'big three' crime solving protagonist; John Rebus, Siobban Clarke, and Malcolm Fox interactively in a multifaceted storyline of two separate crimes that have interrelated characters. Also, though not related to these crimes, Rankin includes acknowledge-ment of a current factual political topic; the UK and Scotland together or separated. Whereas several crimes; past and present are uncovered and solved Rankin utilizes the 'big three's'; knowledge of police procedures, experience and knowledge individually and collectively making for excellent crime solving that is; probable, thought provoking, rational and a good read.
