A word from Ian

“After 30 years and 21 novels, John Rebus seems to have more fans than ever – and luckily for me there’s still plenty of life (and fight) in the old dog. Rebus has been proud to call Orion his home for his various adventures and it’s a thrill and privilege for me to say that a further instalment will arrive in 2018. Now if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to spend some time with an old friend…” Ian Rankin
