The Beat Goes On: The Complete Rebus Stories

Including brand new material, this is the complete collection of Rebus short stories from the SUNDAY TIMES No.1 bestseller. There is no detective like DI Rebus – brilliant, irascible and endlessly frustrating both to his friends and his long-suffering bosses. For over two decades he has walked through the dark places of Edinburgh …Now Rebus’s life is revealed through this complete collection of stories, from his early days as a young DC in ‘Dead and Buried’ right up to the dramatic, but not quite final, retirement in ‘The Very Last Drop’. This is the ultimate Ian Rankin treasure trove – a must for aficionados as well as a superb introduction to anyone looking to experience DI John Rebus, and the dark and twist-filled crimes he has to investigate, for the very first time.
