Suddenly caught in the glare of the television cameras and in the middle of more than one investigation, Rebus must proceed wiht caution: One mistake could mean an unpleasant and not particularly speedy death, or, worse still, losing his job. His investigation takes him north to the oil rigs of Aberdeen, where he meets the Bible Johnny media circus head-on. The Bible Johnny case would be perfect for Inspector John Rebus, but after a run-in with a crooked senior officer, hes been shunted aside to one of Edinburghs toughest suburbs, where he investigates the murder of an off-duty oilman. Nicknamed Bible Johnny by the media, he is a new menace with violent ambitions.

Bible John terrorized Glasgow in the sixties and seventies, murdering three women he met in a local ballroom-and he was never caught. And convict Lenny Spaven died just to prove a point. Oilman Allan Mitchelson died for his principles. Johnny Bible killed to steal his namesakes glory. Ni Bible John killed three women, and took three souvenirs.

Bible John killed three women, and took three souvenirs. If he called the police "woolly suits" one more time I think my ipad would have been wrenched from my ears and stamped on, there were other tedious repeated phrases. I like him in Taggart but his voice has aged and become montone. I loved Rebus on the TV both with John Hannah and Ken Stott as Rebus but this was dire, The narrator droned on. just so long as he stopped saying Bible John every other word. was whether they cxaught him or his copy cat. It meandered backward and forwards and it It felt as though Rankin thought" right I've written the contracted pages so I'll end it abruptly, collect the money and go" I felt thoroughly cheated wasted my credit GRRRR In the end I didn't give a stuff who Bible John. The story dragged on and didn't have a conclusion to speak of. Well I am sorry Ian Rankin, but this Rebus story bored me to tears. Nah! B O R I N G!!!! what a waste of a credit
