The Dentist – Tim Sullivan (A George Cross Mystery)

Description

Good detectives notice details. Great detectives connect them.

When a weather-beaten body is found on Clifton Downs, the police are quick to dismiss it as a quarrel among the unhoused community.

DS George Cross knows how it feels to be overlooked. Unwilling to do the same to others, he sets out to find out what really happened to the dead man.

As George learns about a life that slowly unravelled, his investigation leads him to a decades-old murder. The question is how are the two deaths linked – and who killed each victim?

If anyone can find the answers, it’s George Cross – a man who has always felt like an outsider himself.

Perfect for fans of MW Craven, Ann Cleeves and Joy Ellis, The Dentist is part of the million-copy-bestselling George Cross Mystery series, which can be read in any order, by the 2025 Crime Writers’ Association Dagger in the Library Award longlistee.
