false <![CDATA[The Naming of the Dead]]> http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1170712664m/69800.jpg 69800 21 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.<BR> 3327516 2004 The Naming of the Dead total:705|5:145|4:362|3:167|2:27|1:4| 705 2732 928 91 4 1 false false Thu Feb 01 00:00:00 -0800 2007 Sun Aug 12 09:47:01 -0700 2007 Sun Aug 12 09:48:03 -0700 2007 Rankin, Ian- 17th in series
