Top Rankin

From a piece by Andrew Taylor in The Author for Spring 2008:

Elderly lady: 'I'm looking for something for my grandson; he's 16 and not really into reading, though he likes Pratchett. What might you recommend?'

Bookseller: 'Has he tried Rankin?'

Elderly lady: 'Yes, I suppose that would keep him quiet, but I was really wanting to get him a book.'
