Book Log 2019 #15: Even Dogs in the Wild by Ian Rankin

John Rebus is once again brought out of retirement to help with a case, this time the killing of senior prosecutor that appears to be connected to a shooting at the house of crime boss "Big Ger" Cafferty. The shootings may also be related by the arrival of a father and son team of gangsters from Glasgow, who may be looking to break into Edinburgh.

All of the usual trappings of a Rebus novel are present, and his continued friction with pretty much everyone - but most notably Cafferty and internal affairs officer Malcolm Fox - is a continued source of entertainment. It's always great to see Rebus at work, and given his advancing age I fear that we may not have too many of these stories left.
