| Popis: | Rankin is the creator of the cynical and embittered Edinburgh police detective John Rebus, who by 2015 had appeared in twenty highly regarded and popular novels that made Rankin the bestselling British crime writer. Rebus first appeared in Knots and Crosses (1987), a novel that established the dark, hard-boiled tone of the series, which is as much in the Gothic tradition of Robert Louis Stevenson’s The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde as it is specifically crime fiction. |
