I am insanely in love with George Cross, a perfect detective for our time and for all time' Stephen Fry
DS George Cross delves deep into the world of dirty politics in this Bristol detective series perfect for fans of Peter James and Joy Ellis.

At first glance, the murder of Peggy Frampton looks like a burglary gone wrong. But DS George Cross, with his meticulous methods, thinks otherwise.

The victim, a former mayor of Bristol, is now an online influencer whose forthright opinions attract the kind of attention that most people would like to avoid.

There's no shortage of suspects. Cross's investigation will lead him from Peggy's unfaithful husband to her gambling-addicted son, to a scorned former lover with a grudge. But she also has political enemies in her past.

Cross will have to navigate a dark maze of seedy connections to find the truth – but can he do it before the killer strikes again?

The Politician is a part of the DS George Cross thriller series, which can be read in any order.

A good engaging story and I like the narrator's delivery. I wish the producer (or whatever the equivalent of an oral proof reader is?!) would help the narrator out with some of the mispronounciations. 'burglary', 'secondment' to name just two.

Engaging...but with a request to the producer

Enjoyed the story, but find the narrator a bit annoying. What happened to the narrator from the early books?

Needs a different narrator

Love the characters, the Asperger Syndrome is inspired. The story isn’t to bloody but complicated enough to keep you guessing. I’ve downloaded all 6 titles now and can’t stop listening. It’s different and unusual and I love all the books I’ve listened to so far!

Brilliant
