Summary
The unfailingly shrewd and uniquely brilliant DS George Cross is back...
'One of the most iconic British fictional detectives of the 21st century.' DAILY MAIL
'One of my favourite detectives.' ELLY GRIFFITHS

‘I absolutely loved The Tailor' GARY BARLOW

Measure twice. Cut once.
A bespoke tailor boards the 10:00 train from Bristol to London. Before it reaches Bath, he’s found dead in the toilet, his throat slit and a plastic bag pulled over his head.
DS George Cross deduces that this wasn’t a robbery – nothing about the killing is random.
It’s an execution.
George’s investigation brings him dangerously close to a cold and merciless world. And is it his imagination or is he being followed?
With the highest conviction rate of any officer in the force, someone will do anything to stop George from getting to the truth.
This time, the next cut could be meant for him...
Perfect for fans of MW Craven, Ann Cleeves and Joy Ellis, this is the eighth book in the million-copy-bestselling George Cross Mystery series, which can be read in any order.©2026 Tim Sullivan (P)2026 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
Critic Reviews
I absolutely loved The Tailor… I can’t believe I’ve got so long to wait until the next one (GARY BARLOW)
A joy to read. Beautifully penned, rich in detail and as elegantly put together as a bespoke suit (ABIR MUKHERJEE)
Reaffirms everything that has made this series a bestseller (VASEEM KHAN)
A delight from start to finish
Intricate, funny and with a tantalising plot, Cross just gets better and better
The mystery runs deep and is intriguing
An elegantly woven mystery in all the best traditions of the genre… Sullivan is a writer's writer – witty, cutting and clever. DS George Cross is cut from the same cloth. (HELEN S. FIELDS)
DS George Cross is a marvellous creation
Sullivan’s background as a screenwriter stands him in good stead when it comes to creating compelling plots, riveting scenes, and keeping his story moving toward George’s ultimate case-cracking insight
A now essential British Police Procedural series
