HIDE AND SEEK

I have recently read a book called 'Hide And Seek'. The book was written by Ian Rankine. The book was a crime related story and was set in Edinburgh and surrounding areas.

The book had text that was easy to read and understand. The book had a very gripping storyline. I was unable to put the book down.

The book was all about John Rebus. John Rebus was a police officer for Lothian and Borders Police Force. John was called to a squat in Edinburgh where a junkie was found dead and lying in a very strange situation. John Rebus was not convinced that the young man named Ronnie had infact commited suicide and set off to investigate and prove that Ronnie was murdered. John Rebus and his colleagues discovered many more crimes and exposed themselves to danger to try and uncover the truth. Inappropriate photos and missing cameras were only the start. Tracy who was Ronnie's girlfriend had been inappropriately photographed by the photpgrapher who stole Ronnie's job, pictures and ideas. Was Tracy involved in Ronnie's murder or was John Rebus really investigating a drugs related suicide. I would recommend that you read the book and discover what really happened to Ronnie, honestly it is worth reading.

I would give this book a rating of 5. Another book well written with a fantastic ending.
