What reading level is A Good Hanging And Other Stories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Beneath the overalls lurked a shirt and tie, the marks of his station. He was the chief, the gaffer. Nothing surprised him any more, not even unearthing a skeleton. ‘Do you know,’ he went on, ‘in my time, I’ve found everything from ancient coins to a pocket-watch. How old do you reckon he is then?’ ‘We’re not even sure it is a he, not yet. Give us a chance, Mr Beesford.’ ‘Well, when can we start work again?’ ‘Later on today.’ ‘Must be gey old though, eh?’ ‘How do you make that out?’ ‘Well, it’s ...got no clothes on, has it? They’ve perished. Takes time for that to happen, plenty of time...’ Rebus had to concede, the man had a point. Yet the concrete floor beneath which the bones had been found... it didn’t look so old, did it? Rebus cast an eye over the cellar again. It was situated a storey or so beneath road-level, in the basement of an old building off the Cowgate. Rebus was often in the Cowgate; the mortuary was just up the road. He knew that the older buildings here were a veritable warren, long narrow tunnels ran here, there and, it seemed, everywhere, semi-cylindrical in shape and just about high enough to stand up in.
