In a House of Lies - Book Review

Author - Ian Rankin.

This book was recommended to me on Amazon. I read it as a Kindle read over a week's time.

Situated in Glasgow, the story covers a reopened missing person investigation, due to the discovery of a body. 

What is interesting are the shades of grey within the police force, even as the investigation progresses through twists and turns. 

The pace is closer to a Hercule Poirot than a Tom Clancy, so one needs patience. But it is an intelligent narrative and keeps one hooked till the twisty end.

Overall, a worthy read to those interested in detective fiction, and likely contextual to folks who have visited Scotland or live near.
