    About this ebook

    The seventh novel featuring Inspector John Rebus, available for the first time as an e-book and featuring an exclusive introduction by author Ian Rankin.

    Detective Inspector John Rebus understands that murder is usually very simple. Passion and greed are the most common motives, but when the bodies begin to pile up—two suicides, one murder, and the mysterious death of an inmate in one of Scotland's largest prisons—Rebus realizes that there's nothing simple about his latest case.

    What Rebus knows is that it all began with a petty embezzlement scheme. What he discovers is that beneath the killings a conspiracy is hidden, one that runs all the way to the top of the political ladder. And the cost of unraveling this complex web could be horrifyingly high. Everything he holds dear—his job, his life, even his young daughter—is at stake.

    Powerful men are telling Rebus to "let it take its course," but none of them will reveal just what it is. Rebus stubbornly decides to go forward with his investigation no matter what the cost may be. Men have died for whatever lies at the heart of this plot, and Rebus is determined that those who have set these events in motion will not escape the punishment they deserve.

      Inspector Rebus discovers the byzantine world of politics and government, rubbing elbows with its mandarins. It's an interesting delve into the multiple layers that exist from municipal to territorial, but it's lengthy. While Rankin keeps us tugging along, I found myself wandering from the intrigue and long cast of characters. Well-crafted but a bit long for my taste.
    • 3/5
      I have now read all of the Rebus series books except for the last two. The first book I read in the series was The Falls which is #12. Since then I have pretty much read all the following books when they were published but when Rankin retired John Rebus in Exit Music and I thought there wasn't going to be any more in the series (he has since written 5 more) I decided to read all the books before The Falls. Some were harder to obtain than others so it took a while to obtain the complete list. This was the last one that I bought. It's probably a good thing I didn't read this until I was a dedicated fan because this is my least favourite of any books written by Ian Rankin.It is winter in Edinburgh. Rebus and other police officers have been working on a kidnapping case, the victim being the daughter of a highly placed Edinburgh politician. Kidnappers got in touch with the father and demanded a ransom. When they picked it up the police were waiting and a car chase ensued ending on the bridge that connects Edinburgh and Fife. The kidnappers crashed their car into the guard rail and when Rebus got out of the car he was in and headed toward them the two young men hugged each other and jumped over the bridge landing on a trawler going out to sea. There was no trace of the supposed kidnap victim. Rebus suspects that the two were cashing in on the publicity about the missing girl and when they realized they would go to jail for their hoax they decided to end their lives instead. So suicide is on Rebus' mind when a few days later a just-released prisoner shot himself with a sawed-off shotgun in front of a city councillor. It's a little slow in the CID right then so Rebus wants to investigate this very public suicide. He has to get permission from his one-time lover, Gill Templar, who has been put in charge of the CID temporarily (the former incumbent was badly injured in the car crash on the bridge). Gill is all business with Rebus and makes it clear there will be no resumption of their affair. Rebus is back in his flat having been kicked out of Patience Aitken's house. So he's back to his old lifestyle of work and boozing until he gets suspended for continuing his investigation when told to desist. Then Rebus keeps investigating and boozing using Siobhan Clarke and Brian Holmes to access records when he needs to. He finds details about some high finance schemes for new businesses which get government funding for providing jobs. And someone doesn't want him delving into those schemes. Of course, this just makes Rebus more determined to find out what is going on. It was all very convoluted and I was never quite convinced of the plot. In addition there was an episode where Rebus went back to Patience's house because his daughter Samantha is living with Patience now which gave me a bad taste as Rebus seemed to be willfully malevolent.There was one sentence in the book that I thought was pure genius. "The streets grew quieter after the students had slouched home on the wings of blasphemy." That and the homage to The Rolling Stones in the title made me give Rankin a little slack for this less than stellar book.
    • 4/5
      You know, the more I read of Ian Rankin's John Rebus series, the more I like its star. 'Let it Bleed' is one of the earlier entries (1996) but Rebus is pretty much Rebus through the years. He's a workhorse, totally consumed by the job (he's a detective in Edinburgh, Scotland), with more issues and personal problems than most could take. He's also extremely effective.Let it Bleed begins with a car chase that ends in a dual suicide. Something doesn't look right to Rebus. so he begins to poke around. Following shortly thereafter, a suicide of a recently released old criminal takes place in the office of a local politician. That doesn't look right, either. With Rebus on the case(s), when something doesn't pass the smell test, the digging starts usually followed by other cops trying to keep up with him and bosses being pissed off. He's a guy with principles and a conscience and he usually lets nothing stand in the way of his finding the truth.The plot takes a strange path through financial and political arenas at their highest levels to reach a conclusion that probably satisfies no one. It's a good procedural that exposes how a great detective mind works. It also makes one wonder how many cops are out there really as engaged and interested in the truth as Rebus.As I've found through the entire series, the writing is great, the descriptions of the exotic locale of Edinburgh and its inhabitants, are first-rate, interactions with peers, criminals, and superiors are interesting, and the story doesn't as much propel you quickly to the conclusion as take you through logical approaches to solving the mysteries. It's a fine example of Rankin's skills as a true master of this genre.
    • 4/5
      Best Rebus so far.
    • 5/5
      Finished Let It Bleed by Ian Rankin. Another very enjoyable read in the Rebus series. This felt a different book from others in the series and was a more in-depth book based on the intrigue in politics and the crimes that led from these, as well as the cover-ups. Like other Ian Rankin books love the very feel of the writing style and feeling immersed in the book, in Rebus and in Edinburgh. Some great one liners in the book. Always a pleasure to read Ian Rankin.
    • 4/5
      I have read two other Rebus mysteries, but this is by far the best.
    • 3/5
      This is one of my favorite genres. From Nancy Drew to Bones, to Law and Order, I absolutely love detective thrillers. And yet, I did not love this book. I really wanted to, but I just couldn’t. Detective Lucy Collins sort of falls flat for me. She just fell into her position, and never wowed me. The killer was slightly more interesting, but only slightly. The end was a bit cliché, and even the Sherlock-esque character of DCI Harry Bell was a disappointment.

      I do love that the author did a lot of research. There are some great links as the end of the book, along with stats. I think part of my struggle was that I am not familiar enough with the English legal system. The different ranks meant nothing to me, and there wasn’t even a brief explanation. Of course, I recognize that this is a flaw in American stories (mine included) as well. I don’t think this is necessarily a flaw of the writing, but it did make it difficult for me to get into the story. The way she was promoted felt like deus ex machina. Perhaps it does happen like that in England. I don’t know.

      This is apparently the second book in the series, and stands alone great which I think is always a plus. There were grammar and sentence structure issues for me, but as I have not read enough British authors, I won’t take off for that. I am not familiar enough with the British English writing rules so they may not have been wrong, merely pulled me out of the story.
    • 4/5
      Intricate plotting that demands something of the reader. But very satisfying as it all comes together neatly.

      Let it Bleed by Ian Rankin - Good

      Ah, the perils of reading kindle books that have been given post the drm being broken. This wasn't the book I thought I was reading - it should have been The Black Book, but soon became apparent that it wasn't, so I've accidently read this out of order.

      Didn't stop me enjoying it - even if I did have to switch to paperback part way through (another peril of breaking the drm is that one chapter got mangled). I also vividly remember the freezing cold winter that the author described and his way with words for the Edinburgh winter were perfect!

      The usual Rebus plots and shenanigans - really getting into the swing now with number 7.
    • 5/5
      This installment of Inspector Rebus shows our main character as very human but flawed as he solves this mystery which is about political and business corruption. The story is well crafted and hooks you right away and doesn't let you go until the last page. Filled with Scottish wit, this novel is highly entertaining even though it is a dark, atmospheric tale of conspiracy and greed. I would recommend this series as I find Ian Rankin to be a very intelligent and talented writer.
    • 3/5
      Unfortunately, I liked the seventh Rebus novel a lot less than the previous ones. While the case started out in a very interesting way, it was drawn out too much and the pace was very slow.The novel starts with a car chase on the Forth Road Bridge which leads to the death of two young men. Shortly after that, a man shoots himself in front of a local politician. Rebus has a gut feeling that the cases - which are not even considered to be "cases" by his superiors - are connected and that something is not right. He starts digging and of course leads himself into trouble.Without giving too much away, this is a novel with a lot of political background, starring many organizations, state officials, IT/tech companies, and way too many characters. It was hard to follow everything after some time, and towards the end I just wanted the story to finish.On the other hand, it was probably one of the most atmospheric Rebus novels I read up until now. The sense of place is very, very strong. There are constant references to public buildings and streets in Edinburgh, to the Scottish winter weather, to the different accents of the people Rebus meets and so on. This gave the novel an intense atmosphere that I enjoyed much more than the plot itself.
    • 4/5
      Synopsis: Rebus is back in his own apartment, but his daughter has moved in with Patience. The actual case begins with the Lord Provost's daughter apparently kidnapped, two boys committing suicide, and a small time hood blowing his brains out in front of a Councillor. It ends with Rebus taking on all of the Scottish ruling party.Review: It looks as though Rebus and his daughter may grow closer, but it also appears that Rebus will never be truly happy. This is a bit depressing, but the story is nicely convoluted and the ending made me smile.
    • 3/5
      Two boys hug and jump... One man blows his brains out and does his lady a last favour... Alone in his cell another sets a ball rolling that may demolish a glittering career... Everyone keeps secrets and sometimes not just their own. In an Edinburgh winter the wind blows chill and penetrating. For Rebus it slams one door shut only to open another. Investigating the disappearance of the Provost's daughter leads him from the Old Town to Silicon Gel, from drug addicts to government ministers. And plants the seed that grows into a nagging belief that there may be some criminals beyond the grasp of modern justice.My Thoughts:Whenever there is a bookish programme on tv Ian Rankin is nearly always about and I find him a very a nice guy. I have never read a Rebus novel as I find that I like to read a series in order and it means starting another when I have a massive to be read pile of books. However for book group we have done an Ian Rankin lucky dip and I picked the book which is number seven in the series.Firstly as a stand alone novel which the book could be I wasn’t that impressed. Rebus I liked very much but the story itself for me was to complicated. I get very confused if there is too much going on and if the story starts to delve into politics and governments. I would have preferred to start from the beginning as I like John Rebus and would have liked to get to know him as straight away in the book he has a past history which I feel I need to know. The edition I had did have a map of Rebus’s stomping ground and a brief introduction to him which I found useful.I liked Ian Rankin’s style and quite liked Rebus but not the story.
    • 4/5
      This seventh part of the Rebus "saga" can get a little messy simply because of all the different parts of government that are involved, most of them referred to with acronyms that at least I had a little bit of trouble getting sorted in my head. The mystery is absolutely solid, though, and, as always, the characters are excellent. Also, since it deals with the Information Technology sector as it was in 1996, it's very funny to read about the gadgets that were mere dreams back then and that are reality by now - with wonder in his voice, one of Rebus' friends describes what is now a smartphone, while his 1996 listeners almost scoff at his wild ideas.
    • 4/5
      This is a highly readable entry in the Inspector Rebus saga. It's from back in Rankin's prime writing years, when he plotted a bit more tightly and relied less on his characters' tics and tropes. Briefly, Rebus witnesses two delinquent kids commit suicide by jumping off a bridge. He follows the leads -- in the face of typical bureaucratic and political opposition -- into the local government scene, with unsettling results.Rebus, as always, is tormented but true to his calling. His character is very well-drawn in this entry, in fact. Recommended
    • 4/5
      And certainly a deeper look at Scotland and the political intricacies that abound in this country. Rebus finds himself in the middle of a political intrigue that seems to spread everywhere in his beloved Edinburgh. He isn't solving a murder this time. It appears to be two unrelated suicides that have got ahold of him, and they won't let him go. He also comes up against some pretty sophisticated bad guys who it seems that the long arm of the law can't touch. Rebus' innate honesty and moral rectitude cannot allow him to tolerate that anyone get away with this type of intrigue that has caused the deaths of people, so he pursues the case even though he's supposedly on holiday from work. Putting his career and his personal life on the line, he keeps on digging, pulling up all sorts of stinkies on the way. I really like Rebus with his beautifully flawed character. Rankin has developed an excellent character in his John Rebus. I look forward to reading the next book in the series.
    • 4/5
      As usual Rebus will not be warned off this investigation, which starts simply enough with the apparent suicide of two teenagers cornered on the Forth Bridge. But Rebus soon uncovers a very tangled tale. Another superb instalment in this series.
    • 5/5
      It is hard to fault this book: the only reason that I don't give it 5 stars is that I have come to expect the next instalment of Rebus' career to be even more exciting than the last!Through 360 pages, this book races towards a conclusion that seems to be inevitably to be bad: how can Rebus take on the political system of Scotland? Poor old John Rebus' private life has, in many ways, taken a turn for the worse - Gill Templer has been promoted, albeit temporarily, to be his boss and wants nothing to do with his dangerous schemes, Patience has, well, lost patience with him and taken back her door key which, to make matters worse, she has given to Sammy, Rebus' daughter who, is staying with her rather than the old man whilst working in Edinburgh!Most series of books peak after three or four outings and largely retain their popularity upon loyalty of a fan base: not Rebus, the stories get better and better. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to start 'Black and Blue'.
    • 5/5
      Another excellent Rebus story set in pre-Devolution Edinburgh.
    • 4/5
      An enjoyable, earlyish Rebus story. Less gruesome than most, with plenty of clever dialogue and pithy social comment. Written in 1995, this story is set against the background of the pre-devolution Scottish bureaucracy. Rebus investigates what seem to be a couple of straightforward cases of suicide and, as usual, manages to upset his superiors and get taken off the case...
    • 4/5
      I like these novels about the Scottish detective and this one is no exception. He has his usual irreverence for his superiors and colleagues with a soft-spot for the ladies. His hard-boiled character has to face up to the fact that he may not always get his man. The plot twists and turns satisfactorily with Rebus placed in unusual situations and not comfortable with the high-flying public figures he is investigating. A book to get your teeth into.
