About this programme.
Explore Ian Rankin's radio mysteries with Inspector John Rebus in Let It Bleed and Mr Cullender—Cully—in The Serpent's Back. Alexander Morton plays both men, bringing contrasting investigators to Edinburgh's criminal world. Rebus probes political corruption and insider dealing. Cully's historical case follows a double murderer. The Serpent's Back is a Cully drama, not a Rebus investigation.
