Hide and Seek by Ian Rankin
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Rebus, living alone, sleeping in his easy chair is called out to a squat in a run down housing development where the body of a young man is laid out in a ritualistic pose, a pentagram drawn on the wall, a jar of syringes and burnt down candles at his sides. A drug overdose among the young homeless of Edinburgh or is it?
The investigation brings him in contact with a series of characters and a young constable, Brian Holmes. From other street kids, to rent boys, to fancy private clubs, Rebus tries to piece together pieces of the puzzle, though he doesn't even feel he has ANY pieces. Maybe, he should just let it go--but he has a feeling and it drives him on until the mystery is solved.
