REBUS SERIES 1

Details

• Release Year: 2006
• Genre: Crime, Drama, Mystery
• Plot: Ken Stott (SHALLOW GRAVE, THE VICE, MESSIAH) brings the brooding Inspector John Rebus to life on screen, straight off the pages of Edgar-winning Ian Rankin's crime novels. Haunted by his own failings and the human tragedies that he faces every day, Rebus relentlessly pursues truth under the leaden skies of modern-day Edinburgh. His eager young sidekick, DS Siobhan Clarke (Claire Price, POIROT: THE HOLLOW, THE WHISTLE-BLOWER) resents Rebus's condescending manner at first, but grudgingly comes to respect her gruff partner's abilities. Together they conduct their investigations under the watchful and sometimes jealous eye of their boss, Chief Super Gill Templer (Jennifer Black, LOCAL HERO)–Rebus's former flame.; ; With its sardonic, hard-drinking hero, twisting plots, and atmospherics as dense as fog off the firth, REBUS serves up two engrossing mysteries in the best film noir tradition.
