Last summer, Fife-born, Edinburgh-based Rankin was made a knight in the late Queen’s Birthday Honours for services to literature and charity.

The author said he was “honoured” to receive a knighthood, but is not sure what his star character John Rebus would make of it.

“It is amazing to be honoured in this way as we celebrate Her Majesty The Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. It may not make writing my next book any easier but it is gratifying to be recognised both for my crime novels and the work I do for charity,” Sir Ian said at the time.

“I’m not sure what Detective Inspector John Rebus would make of it – he’d almost certainly tell me not to get too big-headed. I’ll do my best, while pouring a glass of something refreshing.”
