Summary
Introducing your new crime thriller fix: Bristol detective DS George Cross, champion of the outsider, the voiceless and the dispossessed.
DS George Cross can be rude, difficult and awkward with people. But his unfailing logic and dogged pursuit of the truth means his conviction rate is the best on the force. So when his police colleagues dismiss the death of a man as a squabble among Bristol's homeless community, Detective Sergeant George Cross is not convinced.
Who was the unknown man whose weather-beaten body is discovered on Clifton Downs? Did the tragedy that led to a life on the streets also lead to his death?
As he delves into the dead man's past, Cross becomes convinced that to catch this killer, he needs to solve a cold case murder from years before. A murder that someone has got away with for 15 years....

New Detective
Very enjoyable , Cross a very interesting character.
Not hiding the fact that the main character has Asperger’s syndrome was very good.

Well drawn together story
Good plot with a clever twist
Excellent narrator make for an engaging listen
The detective Cross comes across as both preposterous and endearing. He fits the story well.

Intriguing story and well narrated.
I found the narrators style and voice perfect for the character who seemed to find his Asperger’s the issue for others, not him. Lots of twists and I enjoyed getting some of them right. A good listen.

Very enjoyable and well narrated.
Great plot with a good build up. Although of a serious nature, there were many laugh out loud moments for me. It was also informative regarding the Asperger’s condition.

Clever but over-egged
I enjoyed this story which would make a good to film series. However, Asperger’s has been subsumed by Autistic Spectrum Disorder and there were some terrible tropes about autists here. Including being incapable of empathy.
The autism was very overdone and I hope subsequent novels will be a bit more subtle and accurate.
