About this listen

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.

Good police murder story with interesting characters but some distracting deviations to the solution which introduced some additional and complex characters.

I’m loving these books. Not only are they well written murder/crime dramas with unpredictable endings, but they are excellent ND representation. It’s wonderful to read about an autistic main character who is thriving despite his challenges, and also how the people in his life accommodate his needs and respect his skills.

Brilliant. Simply brilliant. I love the interplay between DS Cross and Otto, and extending that to Carson and Mackenzie. Attention to detail for the case and lovely side steps into Cross’ person life.

Exercise is bad for you!
