Shane Harrison
Shane Harrison asked Ian Rankin:

I'm at one with the phrase: those beers won't drink themselves. I'm inspired to revisit Edinburgh and follow in Rebus's footsteps. Tickets booked but fingers crossed for September. I'm asking which pub you recommend? But I think I know the answer. Slainte, and keep up the good work.

Natalya
Natalya asked Ian Rankin:

You visited Croatia and Zagreb (Capital city )3 years ago as a guest of Zagreb Noir Festival and I'm one of those lucky and happy readers to whom you signed your book "The Saints of the Shadow Bible" and a bookmarker for my daughters (Nataša, Leonarda, and Josipa). It's a great weather here, in Zagreb and I'd like you to consider to come again to Zagreb? We love your books here. I wish you all the best.

Dennis
