About this listen
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....

Characters
The character of detective Cross is amazing. Great someone with a personality trait os often portrayed as wholly negative is given such positive traits. As is often the case in real life. Great story line with twists and turns and where the deduction is realistic.

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.

A complex and excellent twistng storyline
An excellent audible by Tim Sullivan, the story builds up slowly and outlines the detectives "Social issues" and then how he disassembles the facts of the murders and works out the real culprits. It was captivating and you won't put it down untill the end.

Warning: addictive!
First book I listened to by Tim Sullivan. And I love it. Having a person with Asperger's/ autism spectrum "disorder" in the lead role, and using his attention to detail to solve crime, is fantastic. Also good to see an honest portrayal of the problems and irritations it can cause in a team, and their need for a mediator who translates their behaviour to others. Most of all, the story itself is seriously addictive. I finished it in two days. Recommended to everyone who loves a good crime story.
Performance is at times not quite smooth, separating words with a little too much emphasis. But it didn't bother me.
