Acerca de esta escucha
"He’s gone...."
When his daughter, Samantha, calls in the dead of night, John Rebus knows it’s not good news. Her husband has been missing for two days.
Rebus fears the worst - and knows from his lifetime in the police that his daughter will be the prime suspect.
He wasn’t the best father - the job always came first - but now his daughter needs him more than ever. But is he going as a father or a detective?
As he leaves at dawn to drive to the windswept coast - and a small town with big secrets - he wonders whether this might be the first time in his life where the truth is the one thing he doesn’t want to find....
A thrilling new Rebus novel about crime, punishment, and redemption, from the Edgar Award-winning "genius" of the genre (Lee Child, best-selling author of the Jack Reacher series).

Historia
The Complaints: that's the name given to the Internal Affairs department who seek out dirty and compromised cops, the ones who've made deals with the devil. And sometimes The Complaints must travel. A major inquiry into a neighboring police force sees Malcolm Fox and his colleagues cast adrift, unsure of territory, protocol, or who they can trust. An entire station-house looks to have been compromised, but as Fox digs deeper, he finds the trail leads him back in time to the suicide of a prominent politician and activist.

Historia
In Europe, the Americans are pulling out their troops in a tide of isolationism. Britain, torn between loyalties to America and the continent, is caught in the middle. Across the pond, a space shuttle crashes on landing, killing all but one of the crew on board: A British citizen named Mike Dreyfuss, who will become vilified by the US press and protesters. Halfway across the world, at English ground control headquarters, Martin Hepton watches with dismay as they lose contact with the most advanced satellite in Europe.

The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

Two years ago, a hostile Prime Minister launched the Monochrome inquiry, investigating "historical over-reaching" by the British Secret Service “to investigate historical over-reaching.” Monochrome’s mission was to ferret out any hint of misconduct by any MI5 officer—and allowed Griselda Fleet and Malcolm Kyle, the two civil servants seconded to the project, unfettered access to any and all confidential information in the Service archives in order to do so. But MI5’s formidable First Desk did not become Britain’s top spy by accident, and she has successfully thwarted the inquiry at every turn.

Historia
Northern Ireland, spring 1981. Hunger strikes, riots, power cuts, a homophobic serial killer with a penchant for opera, and a young woman’s suicide that may yet turn out to be murder: on the surface, the events are unconnected, but then things—and people—aren’t always what they seem. Detective Sergeant Duffy is the man tasked with trying to get to the bottom of it all. It’s no easy job—especially when it turns out that one of the victims was involved in the IRA but was last seen discussing business with someone from the loyalist Ulster Volunteer Force.

So a promotion is the last thing he expects. But Department Q is a department of one, and Carl’s got only a stack of cold cases for company. His colleagues snicker, but Carl may have the last laugh, because one file keeps nagging at him: A liberal politician vanished five years earlier and is presumed dead. But she isn’t dead...yet.

an old friend returns
I'm not sure why but I let several Rebus books lapse before returning to the series with this one. I've always liked the series, even visited the Oxford Bar in Edinburgh between books in the series. But, whatever, I'm back.
In this book Rebus is retired and getting old, he's even got COPD and has moved to the first floor of his building so he doesn't have to walk up steps anymore. Then he gets a call that his daughter's partner has gone missing and he's needed. Rebus gets involved in the case even though he's not a detective anymore. But once a detective always a detective it seems. And the setting goes to the northern tip of Scotland, who knew there was an actual town in Scotland named Tongue?
It's a good Rebus, a page turner for me. I'm going to have to check out those books I missed. Enjoy

One of the best Rebus stories
Didn’t want ‘A Song for the Dark Times’ to end as I fear we might not get much more in the way of John Rebus novels! But what a sweet post-retirement tale of love, loss, and family reconciliation. If you’ve followed these stories for any length of time, this one is a must but would recommend you start earlier on in the series (as long as James Macpherson is the narrator).

Great New Rebus
Rankin delivers a brand new, top notch Rebus. Everything I love about Rebus: attitude, annoying villains, tight plot, wide open landscapes, and tough, evocative writing. Nice father-daughter plot symmetry too - something different. My only complaint is, as a US listener, I had trouble with some of the accents. That stopped me cold several times for a rewind. Granted, the narrator should receive an award for best audio interpretation of a German-Polish-Scots accent for a male character over 90 years old, should such an award exist. Thank you, Mr Rankin, and please keep on writing.

Another great rebus
I find myself wondering whether to give it 4 or 5 stars--4.5 on all counts if I were fair. Anyway, it's Rebus in retirement and still going hard, Siovan (forgive spelling) at work and going hard too. Good crimes, both.

Rankin never disappoints
Great plot with many twists. Rebus may be retired but is still a great detective. Two related plots are woven together with all the detectives we fans have grown to love. Includes the infamous Big Ger too. A real treat.

Ian Rankin at his best
Great character development for all. I am beginning to get really attached to Malcom, Never thought I would. Great story telling as usual, it’s been 23 books and I still can’t have enough.
