" Rebus is back, thank goodness. In Rankin's previous books, the city of Edinburgh has been an important element - almost one of the characters- and I'm sure that's one reason I enjoy them so much. This one features a cold case (actually a series of missing persons cases) that are linked by their locations along the A9, through towns like Pitlochry and Dornoch that I've visited so many times. Nostalgia might be a factor in my high rating:-) "
