'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 a world of dirty politics in this Bristol detective series perfect for fans of Peter James and Joy Ellis.
The murder of Peggy Frampton looks like a burglary gone wrong, at first glance. But DS George Cross, with his meticulous methods, thinks otherwise.
The victim, a former mayor of Bristol, has political enemies in her past. Now she's 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, and finally to a scorned former lover with a grudge.
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.
