After a few good but not great stand alone novels, Ian Rankin has brought Inspector Rebus back and put him in the middle of the G8 summit held a few years ago in Scotland. The use of real events of global significance and rememberance makes this one of the best Rebus mysteries in years. Rebus' brush with the noxious weed in the White House is brilliant!

I can think of noxious weeds I'd prefer, tho' of course we know Rebus turned his brother in for that kind of thing.
Read this last night and this morning, and enjoyed it; but it felt unfinished to me.
Rankin's always worth a throw.
