This book marks the return of John Rebus and it was well worth the wait. Rebus is now retired and working on a cold case squad with other retired officers. He is also hoping to be reinstated to the police force as the retirement age has been raised.
He is contacted by a woman whose daughter disappeared without a trace a few years ago. She informs Rebus that besides her daughter there were a number of other young women who went missing in the vicinity of a certain road, including one who disappeared quite recently. 
Rebus starts his investigation, upsetting his superiors along the way, and also having Inspector Malcom Fox of the Complaint Squad digging into his past.
Rankin has written another great addition to this series. Here's hoping we see much more of Rebus in the future.
