Rebus is a character to secure in himself. Meaning to a fault. Secondary characters such as Fox enriched the story. A man one loves to hate. Sally, the missing daughter, enriched the story. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ No mystery writer tops Rankin for style and substance combined *by S***N on Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2023* Although Rebus has retired, he's still working in the Cold Case unit and has become intrigued by a number of possibly linked missing persons cases. Several young women have disappeared without a trace in the same part of Scotland over the years, and a new active case involves yet another woman who has just vanished from that same area. Rankin as usual doesn't spare the reader the sometimes tedious day-to-day details of an investigation, and, as always, we find Rebus butting heads with those in charge. Slow-moving, with characters who are not always what they seem, as well as a few surprises along the way, this novel should reward patient readers. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Detective I Love to Hate - Or Hate to Love *by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2013* I've been reading Ian Rankin's John Rebus novels for close to a decade and have always had a love-hate relationship with this Edinburgh detective. I'm not alone. Rebus's cynical, impulsive, abrasive, self-destructive ways can play like fingernails on a chalkboard, making it hard for all but a few of the other characters to tolerate, much less "like" John - (poor DS Siobhan Clarke, how does she put up with him?). But despite Rebus' expertly drawn flaws, the curmudgeon gets his hooks in you. And it becomes obvious, anyone who tries as hard as Rebus to prove he doesn't care about anyone or anything has to be hiding something ... like how much he cares.When Rankin retired Rebus in  Exit Music (Inspector Rebus Mysteries)  - the 17th Rebus novel - and introduced a new Edinburgh character (Malcolm Fox) in (and of)  The complaints / Ian Rankin  (think Internal Affairs in U.S. police terms) - it felt like a huge loss to me. Rebus hadn't run his course - and of course, Big Ger Cafferty, king of the Edinburgh underworld, was out of jail and needed someone to keep a careful - and obsessive - eye on him. There are lead characters that grow more and more weary with each passing novel - but Rebus was worn out and washed up when we first met him. If the chain smoking hadn't killed him yet, why put him out to pasture? Maybe Rankin planned for retirement to do to Rebus what Cafferty considered doing countless times but never did. (Grudging respect? A sense of kinship?)I also knew I'd miss the old school rock and roll or blues music suggestions. It's always been a bonus to read through what's on Rebus' playlist in each novel, though he still favors his LPs with the comfortable hiss and pops between tracks over CDs or digital music (horrors!) for his late night melancholy as he looks out the window of his flat, a quickly disappearing bottle of Lagavulin at his side. Standing in Another Man's Grave (Detective Inspector Rebus) was a fabulous vehicle to bring Rebus back where he belongs, in the middle of a bloody crime scene. Interesting, I thought Rankin drew a bit much from a theme and process found in my least favorite Rebus novel, Flesh Market Alley  Fleshmarket Alley - (Rebus took a clear political stance, which I thought was a out of character - he normally couldn't be bothered with what the bloody politicians were up to unless it was murder). But having him work as a civilian investigator on cold case files - including a missing person case that may have multiple and current connections - was a great return.I would note that Rankin has done as good or better of a job keeping Rebus true to form as any series novelist. That's why reviewing an individual book doesn't seem as important to me here as asking if Rebus is really back.He's still loathed and feared by colleagues and criminals alike. He still won't give you the time of day unless you have something he needs. He's still the character I hate to love or love to hate most in my commercial crime reading. But even if he has one foot in the grave - or both in another man's grave - he's back, and that's what matters. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/10971900-standing-in-another-mans-grave-inspector-rebus-series-book-18](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/10971900-standing-in-another-mans-grave-inspector-rebus-series-book-18) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-06-01*
