Strip Jack: MP Gregor Jack is caught in an Edinburgh brothel with a prostitute only too keen to show off her considerable assets. Then Jack's wife disappears. Someone wants to strip Jack naked and Rebus wants to know why. The Black Book: When a close colleague is brutally attacked, Rebus is drawn into a case involving a hotel fire, an unidentified body and a long-forgotten night of terror and murder. Rebus must piece together a jigsaw no one wants completed. Mortal Causes: It is August in Edinburgh and the Festival is in full swing. A brutally tortured body is discovered in one of the city's ancient subterranean streets and Rebus suspects the involvement of sectarian activists. The prospect of terrorism in a city heaving with tourists is unthinkable.

This review is from: Ian Rankin (Paperback)
Packaging these three novels together (numbers 4-6 in the Inspector Rebus series)is a good choice. You get to see the character develop and mature and you can easily follow the linked plots. It's convenient to have them in order, as long as you don't mind a large book (9"X6"X2"--690 pages) This paperback is well-bound and the type particularly clear and satisfyingly large.
