Tooth and Nail by Ian RankinMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Having gained a reputation as an expert serial killer captor, Rebus has been summoned to London from Edinburgh to help in a gruesome investigation. Someone has been slitting the throats of women, slashing their anuses and leaving bite marks in a semi-circle on their abdomens. There appears to be no correlation among the types of women, the locations of the murders. And the killer leaves no clues--no fibers, no hairs, no blood, no DNA sources of any kind. Not only is this a tough nut to crack, but the London guys aren't too thrilled with the pro from the North of the Border.
As usual, Rebus also has his ex-wife and daughter with whom to deal, now that he is in London where they live. And as usual, there is a romantic plot line that goes nowhere.
Good addition to the series
