Book Log 2017 #44: Resurrection Men by Ian Rankin

John Rebus finally takes things too far - or has finally taken things too far once too often - as a blow up during the investigation of a murdered art dealer sees him suspended and packed off for "retraining." He winds up with a group of detectives who have similarly fallen out of good graces, and in the process of reviewing a cold case that's part of the retraining, Rebus get drawn in to investigating a scheme that several of his fellow reprobates were involved in. And to make things even trickier, the cold case the group is reviewing may have happened thanks to a mistake Rebus made at the time it occurred.

At the same time, he has to run interference between Big Ger Cafferty and Siobahn Clarke, as she needs information from the gangster that might help solve the killing. And as usually happens, the cases come together, leading to larger and more dangerous implications for all involved.

Do I honestly even need to tell you that you should be reading this series?
