Rosemary’s Book of the Week

Midnight and Blue
Ian Rankin.
John Rebus spent his life as a detective putting Edinburgh’s most deadly criminals behind bars.Now, he’s going to join them….

As new allies and old enemies circle, and the days and nights bleed into each other, even the legendary detective struggles to keep his head.

That is until a murder at midnight in a locked cell presents a new mystery. They say old habits die hard…

However, this is a case where the prisoners and guards are all suspects,and everyone has something to hide. With no badge, no authority and no safety net, Rebus walks a tightrope – with his life on the line.
