The highly anticipated brand new John Rebus thriller from the iconic Number One bestseller Ian Rankin

The brand new John Rebus thriller from the iconic Number One bestseller Ian Rankin: one of the must-read books of the year.

'Rebus in jail and better than ever ... Surprising, gripping and witty. Rankin has taken the police procedural and transformed into an epic character study of a man and his city ... Nobody does it better.'
THE TIMES

* * * * *

JOHN REBUS SPENT HIS LIFE AS A DETECTIVE PUTTING EDINBURGH'S MOST DEADLY CRIMINALS BEHIND BARS.

NOW, HE'S JOINED THEM.

As new allies and old enemies circle, and the days and nights bleed into each other, even the legendary detective struggles to keep his head.

That is, until a murder at midnight in a locked cell presents a new mystery. They say old habits die hard...

However, this is a case where the prisoners and the guards are all suspects, and everyone has something to hide.

With no badge, no authority and no safety net, Rebus walks a tightrope - with his life on the line.

But how do you find a killer in a place full of them?

PRAISE FOR MIDNIGHT AND BLUE:

'Unforgettable ... Proves that Rebus is one of the most remarkable characters in crime fiction.'
DAILY MAIL

'With every novel, Rankin leaves us wanting more. Midnight and Blue is no exception. As Rebus ages, he becomes ever more human, ever more relatable, and the books become even better... This is unmissable.'
MICK HERRON, the Sunday Times Number One Bestseller


'Midnight & Blue is a triumph. Rebus as you've never seen him before and Rankin at his best.'
ELLY GRIFFITHS, the Sunday Times Number One Bestseller

'A taut, claustrophobic thriller, that puts a Golden Age twist on a modern-day tale. The perfect book to keep Rebus fans clanging their tin cups against the prison bars, until the riot kicks off...'
STUART MACBRIDE, the Sunday Times Number One Bestseller


'Kept me up reading until long after midnight. Blew me away. Absolutely brilliant, as always.'
JILL MANSELL, the Sunday Times Bestseller
