    Good Points: The writer is a master of his class.

    Bad Points: Not one.

    General comments: Ian Rankin, A Question of Blood Review: We are asked to believe that Rebus has become the rogue copper and killed a minor hood. We follow him through the streets helped by his colleague DS Siobhan Clarke, in and out of the pubs and bars of the city, avoiding his suspension and helping to solve another tragic killing and an assumption of a lesser Dumblane. Remember Rebus was almost forty when he was created in 1987 so whatever he does now is almost by memory, but still well worth reading catch him whilst he lasts.

Book Review - A Question of Blood by Ian Rankin
It's even more intimidating when it's the 16th novel in the series. While in a small airport and looking for a book to read, I came across Ian Rankin's A Question of Blood.
