Ian Rankin at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival
There’s no stopping Rebus. Ian Rankin’s iconic detective has recently made a stage debut in Long Shadows and will be resurrected on TV in a new series by Black Watch playwright Gregory Burke. The latest Rebus novel, In a House of Lies, is one of the finest yet – a smart procedural that zips around Edinburgh’s imaginary underworld. Mark the paperback’s arrival and hear hints of what’s next in this event filmed live at the 2019 Edinburgh International Book Festival. This event was live captioned.
