Description:
The Politician
A ransacked room. A dead politician. A burglary gone wrong - or a staged murder?
THE DETECTIVE
DS George Cross loves puzzles - he's good at them - and he immediately spots one when he begins investigating the death of former mayor Peggy Frampton. It looks like a burglary that went horribly wrong to most but George can see what others can't - that this was murder.
THE PUZZLE
After her political career ended, Peggy became a controversial blogger whose forthright opinions attracted a battalion of online trolls. And then there's her family: an unfaithful husband and a gambling-addicted son. With yet more enemies in her past, the potential suspects are unending.
THE SUSPECTS
Cross must unpick the never-ending list of seedy connections to find her killer - but the sheer number of suspects is clouding his usually impeccable logic. He's a relentlessly methodical detective, but no case can last forever. And politics can be a dangerous game - especially for people who don't know the rules . . .
The Monk
To find a murderer, you need a motive . . .
THE CASE
DS George Cross is called to investigate when the body of a monk is found savagely beaten in a woodland near Bristol.
THE QUESTION
Nothing is known about Brother Dominic's past. How can Cross unpick a crime when he doesn't know anything about the victim? And why would someone want to harm a monk?
THE PAST
They learn that Brother Dominic had no enemies - or, at least, none that are obvious. But his past reveals that he was once a wealthy man, that he sacrificed it all for his faith.
For a man who has nothing, it seems strange that greed could be the motive for his murder. But greed is a sin after all . . .
The Teacher
He's a victim. But is he innocent?
THE BODY
In a village in South West England, an elderly man is found dead in his home. The angle of his neck says he fell down the stairs. The stab wound on his body tells a different story.
THE EVIDENCE
In the weeks before his murder, Alistair Moreton changed. He usually kept himself to himself, but people swear there was someone in the house when they checked on him, that there was a reason he wouldn't let them inside.
THE PUNISHMENT
Moreton made people's lives a misery, from his neighbours to his ex-pupils. While DS George Cross's list of suspects is long, every victim deserves justice.
But in all of Alistair's years, there was something important he never learned:
If you go through life making enemies, don't be surprised when they teach you a lesson.
