The leaders of the free world descend on Scotland for an international conference, and every cop in the country is needed for front-line duty...except one. John Rebus's reputation precedes him, and his bosses don't want him anywhere near Presidents Bush and Putin, which explains why he's manning an abandoned police station when a call comes in. During a preconference dinner at Edinburgh Castle, a delegate has fallen to his death. Accident, suicide, or something altogether more sinister? And is it linked to a grisly find close to the site of the gathering? Are the world's most powerful men at risk from a killer? While the government and secret services attempt to hush the whole thing up, Rebus knows he has only seventy-two hours to find the answers.

Industry Reviews

"The best living British crime writer." -- Lee Child "The fifty-something Rebus is surely one of the most rounded, warts-and-all characters in modern crime fiction. . . . Those who want to plunge deep into a world of convincing characters and brilliantly rendered atmospherics can't do much better than this." -- Washington Post "Patrick Anderson" "The best living British crime writer." -- Lee Child "There is a reason this guy is a #1 bestseller all over the world. Pick up "The Naming of the Dead, " read the first few pages, and then thank me later." -- Harlan Coben "For Rankin's fans all over the world, Rebus is the ideal sleuth." -- The New Yorker "Clive James"
