In A House of Lies is Ian Rankin's latest and greatest. It is
stunning. I didn't sleep for three nights reading it
*Jilly Cooper*
Rankin remains the most consistent practitioner of finely crafted,
richly detailed, literary crime novels being produced today. He's
always been at the top of his game, and this latest is no
exception.
*Linwood Barclay*
Definitely not to be missed. Ian's at the top of his form here, and
no reader will go away disappointed.
*Peter Robinson*
In A House of Lies shows how investigations of historic crimes are
currently shaping our world and who the casualties are. Thrillingly
told, with the best cast in contemporary crime, Rankin is one of
the most significant social commentators of our time. Just read the
book. It says it better than I can
*Denise Mina*
This is absolutely wonderful. Clever, gripping, a fabulous read
*Kate Mosse*
How does Rebus keep on getting better and better? Rankin is a
genius
*Lee Child*
'In a House of Lies is highly complex procedural that grips from
the first sentence... No one in Britain writes better crime novels
today.'
*EVENING STANDARD*
A first rate crime novel: tense, twisty and often very funny. A
real joy to see Rebus, Siobhan and Fox together. Rebus still making
sparks fly
*Elly Griffiths*
There's no one like Ian Rankin for bringing us right into the world
of detectives. For anyone who's fascinated by the inner workings of
that world, and all its tricky, brutal, expert ruthlessness, In A
House of Lies is a must-read
*Tana French*
Out of this rich stew of characters, and a plot so complex it will
elude anything other than total concentration, Rankin crafts one of
the great Rebus novels, a vibrant slab of a book as gripping as it
is intoxicating.
*METRO*
Beautifully told, superbly constructed and utterly engrossing, this
is vintage Rebus.
*DAILY MAIL*
As ever, Rankin contrives to marry intricate plotting to a
narrative that never slackens its pace.
*THE SCOTSMAN*
This is a rewarding experience just as much as a page-turning
pleasure
*GRAZIA*
