Omtale fra forlaget
A student has gone missing in Edinburgh .
She.s not just any student, but the daughter of extremely well-to-do and influential bankers. There.s almost nothing to go on until Detective Inspector John Rebus gets an unmistakable gut feeling that there.s more to this than just another rebel, high on daddy.s money and more. Two leads emerge: a carved wooden doll in a six inch coffin abandoned at a rural beauty spot and an Internet role-playing game run by a mysterious cyber guru. The ancient and the mordern, brought together by uncomfortable circumstances and a curmudgenonly detective happier with playing vinyl than MP3s.
Putting together a misfit team from the Lothian & Borders finest, Rebus takes the unpromising historical material and runs with it, leaving DC Siobhan Clarke to take her chances with the virtual Quizmaster. She.s young enough to know how to navigate the net, but is she old and wise enough to pick up the clues in such a complex case?
Rebus takes his eyes off the ball, intrigued as to how his clue relates to sixteen similar coffins found on an Edinburgh hillside in 1836. Will he react in time? Or see more coffins filled in a game where lives, real and virtual, depended on split second timing?
