FROM THE BLURB:

Struggling through another Edinburgh winter Rebus finds himself sucked into a web of intrigue that throws up more questions than answers. Was the Lord Provost's daughter kidnapped or just another runaway? Why is a city councillor shredding documents that should have been waste paper years ago? And why on earth is Rebus invited to a clay pigeon shoot at the home of the Scottish Office's Permanent Secretary? Sucked into the machine that is modern Scotland, Rebus confronts the fact that some of his enemies may be beyond justice.

I've enjoyed many novels by Rankin and Let it Bleed was no exception as John Rebus sticks his nose in where it isn't wanted in search of the reason for mysterious suicides. A VERY exciting opening chapter! While the rest of the book doesn't have the same pace and adrenaline rush, it is an interesting story where Rebus confronts some moral and ethical dilemnas.

I was intrigued by the word "broo" which, with the grim weather, creates a vivid picture of Edinburgh.
