Rankin, Ian creator text London Orion House 2011 1st English Reissue monographic 261 P. 18 cm. A Junkie lies dead in an Edinburgh squat - spreadeagled cross-like on the floor between two burned-down candles, a five-pointed star daubed on the wall above. Just another dead addict, until John Rebus begins to chip away at the indifference, treachery, deceit and sleaze that lurk behind the facade of the Edinburgh familiar to the tourists. 9781407234991
