Series: George Cross Mysteries

Don't miss THE TAILOR, the brand new mystery in the million-copy-bestselling George Cross series - available to pre-order now.

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-selling George Cross Mystery series, which can be read in any order, by the 2025 Crime Writers' Association Dagger in the Library Award longlistee.

Why readers love George Cross...

'A clever mystery full of tension but also humour and compassion. George Cross is becoming one of my favourite detectives.’ Elly Griffiths 'In DS George Cross, Tim Sullivan has created a character who is as endearing as any I’ve ever come across in this genre. His quirks are his gift, and with Sullivan’s tremendous plotting and superb writing, this series is a gift to readers.' Liz Nugent 'The fact that Cross has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder makes him just as intriguing as the murder mystery' The Times 'A British detective for the 21st century who will be hard to forget' Daily Mail

'A compelling, suspenseful police procedural with an intimate, positive insight into living on the autistic spectrum' Woman 'An excellent, excellent read' Reader Review
