In the 24th instalment in the Inspector Rebus series written by Ian Rankin, both Rebus and his frenemy 'Big Ger' Cafferty, the gangster, are old.
Rebus had retired in 2007.
Both are a little bored. COVID-19 is a threat but lockdown has ended, probably in 2022.
Cafferty wants Rebus to find a man. Surprisingly, Rebus agrees.
Rebus ends up on trial for a crime. Did he do it?
Rebus both fears exposure of past misdeeds and examines his own motives at the time, trying to ascertain whether, in breaking the rules, he also crossed the moral lines he had drawn for himself. ...
All the Rebus books are great. This one certainly as good as any.
I recommend you start at the beginning:
