Exit music by Ian Rankin

The last case for Inspector Rankin before he heads off to retirement, yeah right! In this book he is chasing the murderer of a Russian poet who has been found dead in a park. As always with Rankin, a very unpredictable ending and a griping story till the end. I did feel a more then a little sad at his retirement and especially the way it was done, but then I am a sentimental old so and so.
