About The Bookseller - A DS George Cross Mystery

"One of the most iconic British fictional detectives of the 21st century."--Daily Mail Read enough, and you'll learn how to get away with murder A violent murder in a bookshop kicks off this propulsive new addition to the beloved DS George Cross mystery series When the body of a bookseller is discovered lying in a pool of blood in his Bristol bookshop, the police have one question: How did the man meet such a violent, murderous end in this peaceful place? Detective Sergeant George Cross has a knack for dismissing red herrings: He goes by the cold hard facts, and nothing else. But with a concerning development in his personal life, Cross is hopelessly distracted. He needs to rely on those around him: an entirely foreign concept. Bookselling may be a quiet profession, but it's full of passionate, ambitious characters who know the value of a rare book. Their extensive reading means they also know how to get away with murder. But is that enough to fool the tenacious DS George Cross?
