English Summary/英文概要： In Edinburgh you’re never far from a peaceful spot or from a hellish one either. Now, in the heart of summer, in the midst of a nationalist festival, Inspector John Rebus is on the murder case of a young man left hanging in a spot where his screams would never be heard. To find the victim’s identity--and his killer--Rebus searches from Edinburgh’s most violent neighborhood to Belfast, Northern Ireland--amongst petty thugs, gunrunners, and heavyweight criminals. But before Rebus can get to the truth, he’s bloodied by the dream of society’s madmen--and starin的g into the glint of a killer’s eyes.

"Rankin’s ability to create a credible character, delivering convincing dialogue to complement sinister and hard-hitting plots set against vividly detailed atmosphere, is simply awesome." Time Out
