    Ian Rankin

    Formats & Editions

    FROM THE ICONIC NUMBER ONE BESTSELLER IAN RANKIN

    THEY SAY THE DEVIL MAKES WORK FOR IDLE HANDS...

    Three friends visit an art auction each in search of something. Self-made mogul Mike Mackenzie completed the rat race, Allan Cruikshank is bored of his banking job, while art professor Robert Gissing is disgusted that so many paintings stay hidden in boardrooms.

    One chance encounter is all it takes to light a spark in each: to plot the perfect crime.

    The target? The National Gallery of Scotland. The prize? Some of the most valuable artworks around. The risk? None - because the world will never know that a crime was ever committed.

    But with such high stakes at play, the heist will descend into second guesses and double crosses, with a deadly sting in the tail...

    'Perhaps Rankin's most entertaining book yet' JOHN CONNOLLY

    Praise for Doors Open

    • Because Rankin is a master story-teller, that means the reader is quickly swept up and carried along. I read this in one sitting... I kept meaning to do other things... but somehow had to keep putting them off until I finished this chapter; and then the next; until I'd reached the end - GUARDIANDOORS OPEN is a lot of fun. It's pacy, witty, full of action, twists and splendid dialogue - THE TIMESA fast-paced, intriguingly plotted tale of a heist in Edinburgh's art world, it also features the city's shadier side - FINANCIAL TIMES
