Ade Edmondson lunches with Ian Rankin – the best-selling crime novelist, Diamond Dagger Award-winner, and creator of ‘Inspector Rebus’.

Ian tells us about his run-in with ‘L.A. Confidential’ author James Ellroy; how he turned down Sean Connery; and why the moors murderer, Ian Brady, asked to speak with him during the filming of his TV Show ‘Evil Thoughts’.

Plus, Ian reveals when he expects his next Rebus novel to hit the shelves.
