Resurrection Men opens with Rebus acting somewhat out of character, albeit at the same time entirely believably given his curmudgeonly outlook on life… but throwing a mug of coffee at Gil Templer is a rather more active outburst than usual. Sent to reflect on the error of his way, Rebus hooks up with some fellow reprobate police as they are tasked with investigating a long closed cold case…. which, it turns out, they have rather more insight into than the records suggest….
