Gregor Jack, MP, well-liked, young, and married to the fiery Elizabeth - to the outside world a very public success story. But Jack's carefully nurtured career plans take a tumble after a 'mistake' during a police raid on a notorious Edinburgh brothel.

Then Elizabeth disappears, a couple of bodies float into view where they shouldn't, and a lunatic speaks from his asylum...

Initially, Rebus is sympathetic to the MP's dilemma - who hasn't occasionally succumbed to temptation - but with the disappearance of Jack's wife, the glamour surrounding the popular young man begins to tarnish.

Someone wants to strip Jack naked and Rebus wants to know why...

Ian Rankin's Strip Jack offers a thrilling dive into a world where public facades crumble, revealing the complexities beneath.
