Following his retirement Rebus is back working on the force, but at the lower rank of Detective Sergeant.
Rebus and DCI Shiobhan Clarke are called out to the scene of a car accident. There was no-one else involved and the young woman, Jessica Traynor, who was found unconscious in the drivers seat, has been taken to hospital. Rebus finds one of her shoes in the passenger footwell and becomes suspicious that she wasn't actually the driver and that there was someone else involved.
Malcolm Fox has been given one final assignment from the complaints department. He is to investigate 'the Saints' who were the old school police officers. He needs to know if they were covering up their own crimes.
Rebus becomes involved in both investigations, he is helping Fox as well as being under a slight shadow of suspicion himself from his earliest days on the force.
Slowly more information is uncovered in both investigations.
