read by Ewan Stewart. All the tourists saw were shadows from history, while the city itself was something else entirely. Welcome to John Rebus’s Edinburgh in the very first of Rankin’s series about the edgy detective. As Rebus pursues a serial killer who is strangling little girls, we learn his background troubled childhood, troubled army career, troubled marriage. Dour, downbeat and occasionally droll, the world of law enforcement in Auld Reekie is memorably created by Rankin; Stewart delivers well enough, although sometimes the words threaten to overwhelm his sense of pace and timing (6 hours 13 minutes, unabridged).
