A student has gone missing in Edinburgh. She's not just any student, though, but the daughter of well-to-do and influential bankers. There's almost nothing to go on until DI John Rebus gets an unmistakable gut feeling that there's more to this than just another runaway spaced out on unaccustomed freedom.

Two leads emerge: a carved wooden doll in a toy coffin, found in the student's home village, and an internet role-playing game. The ancient and the modern, brought together by uncomfortable circumstance...

It may be the 12th time out for Rankin's maverick detective, but The Falls still feels as fresh as ever . . . If you haven't read the other 11 Rebus novels, it's about time you did
The Falls, the 12th full-length Inspector Rebus story, finds his creator, Ian Rankin, at his brilliant, mordant best, with the dark heart of the city featuring almost as strongly as Rebus himself (Antonia Fraser)
A complex mystery novel, as you would expect from Rankin, one of a handful of truly outstanding British mystery writers . . . Terrific
An extraordinarily rich addition to crime literature
Rankin continues to be unsurpassed among living British crime writers . . . He makes the reader feel part of the scene, and enhances the experience with his virtuosity with dialogue . . . But all these virtues would count for little if Rankin didn't also possess the most important asset of them all - the ability to tell a damned good story (Marcel Berlins)
A very skilful entertainment . . . its clues are as learned and cross-word-puzzling as any in John Buchan
The Falls is an inventive and absorbing book . . . Once again the city, cast in shadows and light, is centre stage, as complex and brooding as Rebus himself . . . Ian Rankin, a crime writer with style, has produced another highly enjoyable and exciting book
It is a fact universally acknowledged that Ian Rankin leads the field in the category of British humanistic crime writing . . . his ability to wrap together diverse ingredients into a plot-sandwich bulging with flavour is ingenious
Rankin has an intuitive grasp of the dark magic of narrative: at its simplest, you read the books because you want to know what will happen. He writes beautifully, too . . . Few would disagree that Ian Rankin is making a contribution to crime fiction that will last. His novels are playing a significant part in redefining Scotland's image of itself in literature. He is one of a handful of British crime writes whose books are not only commercially successful but also build a strong case for why crime fiction, at its best, can and should be considered as literature
Whatever it is that makes a good crime writer, Ian Rankin has it in spades
Rankin masterfully pulls his fascinating plot together, and his sense of place casts a powerful shadow on this subtle tale of the recurrence of evil. The unopposed champion of the British police procedural field
This is the 12th novel featuring Inspector Rebus, one of the undoubted stars of modern British crime fiction . . . Ian Rankin is a first-rate storyteller in the classic mould, but what really distinguishes his work is his gift for characterisation

One of the best Rebus stories,but very long. The central plot was well structured, coherent and realistic; some of the subplots were unnecessary. The clues to the culprits were clearly present. The references to Edinburgh villains and Edinburgh landmarks was intriguing - good for tourism; I learnt things. Shame that one of the heavily featured historical characters was fictitious. The caring side of Rebus shone through. No Cafferty! The narrator took some getting use to:his normal voice was harsh, but he voiced Rebus ok.

Interesting historical and geographical detail.

Excellent storytelling at its finest, engrossing and engaging book. Listening to the rebus novels in order and this one is certainly better than the last, onto the next.

Excellent

Almost impossible to press pause - great story very well read. The drama is cranked up as well the interesting and touching back stories of the characters - good and bad. Nice to be in the posh part of Edinburgh for once even though the people are just as badly behaved. Loved it

Gripping hard to stop listening to
