  1. You’re right – they were looking for the soldiers who would be the very hardest to break, and they took it too far. Had to check the details though; reminds me that I must get round to Mission Reread Rebus sometime. I remember more about the first book than I do about a lot of the later ones.

    I’m not sure if Rebus was as handy in a fight as you’d expect an ex-SAS soldier to be.
