ISBN : 9782253086017
John Rebus est de retour officiellement à la Criminelle. Seul bémol : il a été rétrogradé sergent et doit travailler sous les ordres de son ancienne disciple Siobhan Clarke. Ils sont tous les deux en train d'enquêter sur une affaire a priori simple d'accident de voiture lorsqu'ils apprennent que le ministère public a décidé d'exhumer du passé de Rebus une histoire vieille de trente ans. A l'époque, l'équipe dont il faisait partie avait été accusée de falsification de preuves dans une affaire criminelle. Le service des plaintes, l'hypercorrect Malcolm Fox en tête, est saisi du dossier. Rebus est sur la corde raide. Il ne sait pas s'il peut faire confiance à Fox et, pourtant, il va avoir besoin de son aide. Quand on réveille un vieux chien aigri, il vaut mieux être bien préparé... Un grand Rebus sur fond de référendum à propos de l'indépendance de l'Ecosse.
