Exit Music

Sometimes murder is the easy way out... A brilliant Rebus novel from the No.1 bestselling author of A SONG FOR THE DARK TIMES. 'Britain's No.1 crime writer' Daily Mirror 'Ian Rankin is a genius' Lee Child A mugging gone wrong ... or murder? A dissident Russian poet is found dead - at the same time a delegation of Russian businessmen arrives in town. For some, it is crucial that the case is closed quickly, clinically and with the minimum of attention. But DI Rebus and DS Siobhan Clarke believe this is something more than a random attack - especially after a particularly nasty second killing. Then, a brutal and premeditated assault on a local gangster puts Rebus in the frame - and he may not survive long enough to solve anything... **** Ian Rankin's A HEART FULL OF HEADSTONES was a Sunday Times bestseller w/c 10th October 2022 and w/c 1st May 2023

En delegation af russiske investorer er i byen, og en kontroversiel russisk lyriker bliver fundet myrdet. I opklaringsarbejdet må Rebus søge at balancere mellem det officielle Skotland, de ambitiøse lokale bankfolk og de mere eller mindre dubiøse russere. Fælles for dem er, at de er farlige at komme for tæt på, og det bliver ikke mindre farligt af, at den lokale storgangster Cafferty tydeligvis har noget med sagen at gøre. Alle presser på for at få lukket sagen hurtigst muligt, men Rebus og Siobhan Clarke er overbeviste om, at der er mere på spil end blot et fejlslagent røveri. Der er kun få dage til, at Rebus skal pensioneres, og kan han nå at binde de løse ender sammen, samtidig med at han bliver anklaget for et overfald og suspenderes? "En superb, spændende og sofistikeret politikrimi fra mesterens hånd." Politiken "Fremragende ... Et klassisk Rebus-plot, som man følger med i med sindet stemt sørgmodigt, i bevidstheden om at det altså er sidste gang." ***** Jyllands-Posten "Et smukt farvel og en nydelig svanesang for Rebus." **** Thisted Dagblad "Exit Music er som at miste en god ven. Det er John Rebus Blues." **** Jydske Vestkysten Syttende bind i serien om John Rebus.

(Book). Radiohead doesn't play by the rules of rock stardom. When conventional wisdom urges a turn to the right, Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Ed O'Brien, Colin Greenwood, and Phil Selway unfailingly turn left. Despite or perhaps because of this, Radiohead has become one of the world's most famous bands, and more important, unique in its style, themes, and ability to connect to a loyal fan base. But Radiohead's journey to fame over more than a decade has been fraught with tension. As the quintet continues to search for sounds that haven't been heard before, each new album and tour is a potential crisis point, threatening to split the band apart. Through it all, these consummate outsiders have revealed little about themselves. But Exit Music: The Radiohead Story uncovers the details behind the songs. In this new, updated, and revised edition, author Mac Randall follows the band from its beginnings in suburban Oxford, UK, through the success of Creep and OK Computer to the traumatic recording sessions that spawned Kid A, Amnesiac, Hail to the Thief, on to the award-winning In Rainbows and beyond. This new edition also includes coverage of the band's most current release and eighth studio album, The King of Limbs .
