IAN RANKIN, A QUESTION OF BLOOD: PAPERBACK
At a private school two teenagers are killed by an ex-Army loner who then turns the gun on himself. As DI John Rebus puts it, 'there's no mystery...except the why'. But this question takes him into the heart of a shattered community - and to a link with his own troubled past. Rebus becomes fascinated by the killer. The man had friends and enemies to spare, from politicians to local Goths, and left behind a legacy of secrets and lies
