Summary

In the `60s, "Bible John" terrorized Glasgow, raping and murdering three women. Now, a copy-cat killer has been nicknamed "Bible Johnny" by the media and is targeting not only Glasgow, but also Edinburgh and Aberdeen. Investigating another murder, Rebus runs head on into the media circus.

Black And Blue Summary

Black And Blue by Ian Rankin

The local constabulary is stretched to the limit by tragedies on and offshore and Rebus cannot afford to make one single mistake if he's to stay alive, nevermind solve any one of the several murder cases now consuming his every waking thought.
