Detective Inspector John Rebus is retired but the shadows of his former life still follow him through the streets of Edinburgh. Whisky helped but now he’s denying himself that pleasure. But when the daughter of a murder victim appears outside his flat, he’s back on the case and off the wagon...
Ian Rankin’s Rebus novels have dominated the detective fiction market with the ensuing television series ensuring the detective’s legendary status. Now, alongside award-winning playwright Rona Munro, Ian Rankin is bringing his beloved creation to the stage for the very first time.
Starring Ron Donachie as John Rebus, best known for playing DI John Rebus in the BBC Radio 4 dramatisations of the Ian Rankin Rebus mystery novels and for his role of Ser Roderick Cassel in the hit TV series Game of Thrones.
