Introducing your new crime thriller fix: Bristol detective DS George Cross, champion of the outsider, the voiceless and the dispossessed.

DS George Cross can be rude, difficult, and awkward with people. But his unfailing logic and relentless pursuit of justice means his conviction rate is the best on the force. So when a ravaged body is found in a local demolition site, it's up to Cross to piece together the truth from whatever fragments he can find.

The demolition began at dawn. Walls knocked over. Twisted pipes uprooted. Window frames smashed. A dead body unearthed...

DS Cross has little to go on, but from the faint tan lines on the body, and strange scars on his forearms, an identity gradually emerges: a young man; an amateur cyclist; a supply of performance enhancing drugs. But what led this man to his death? Soon, Cross has mounted an investigation that will uncover jealousy, ambition and a family tearing itself apart... An investigation that could cost him his career.

Sullivan continues the detective story of Cross and his team. It is an interesting story unfolding steadily. I would recommend this to any fans.

Loved it! George is becoming one of my favourite detectives and im now fully invested in him.
One of the reviews left complains about excessive use of swearing. I didnt think there was much swearing at all, and when it was used, it was in keeping with the character.

I really love the narrator and his voice suits Cross. Im now off to buy book 3!

Keep them coming!

Brilliant!

Careful with George Cross Mysteries. You WILL get hooked and WON’T be able to put them down.
Tim Sullivan writes in a way that sounds so real. There are no artifices, he writes, in a way, as his Cross character does everything: the obvious, the right way. His depiction of Cross’ autism is brilliant. As an adopted Bristolian, I also very much enjoy the background notes to the stories.
The performance is also brilliant, by the way.

Genius

The more I get to know DS Cross, the more I like him. Interesting characters, interesting story with twists and turns and a very likeable detective. I’m hooked.
