Detective Cross - absolute recommendation!

This character causes what readers crave for: emotions! Whether it‘s an eye roll or the wish to hug him - you have emotions. That‘s why I read no matter if the crime was a bit too long-winded or well-paced: Cross is the one I followed.

No wonder the book is such a success!

Thanks so much to the publisher for the e-book!

"The Dentist" by Tim Sullivan is the first book I have by him, but it certainly won't be the last. This engaging police procedural features the endearing yet resolute Detective Constable George Cross as the protagonist. His intelligence and charm make him a standout character, complemented by a superb cast of supporting roles.

The plot centers around the discovery of a homeless man, who turns out to be a dentist that vanished years ago and was officially declared dead by his family. Intriguingly, his wife was murdered several years prior to his disappearance. Detective Constable Cross is committed to unraveling the mysteries behind both murders, which occurred nearly two decades apart. If you appreciate well-crafted police work, this book is a must-read.

The Dentist by Tim Sullivan. First in the DS Cross Mysteries Series. The characters are very interesting and unusual, especially DS Cross who provides an interesting change as a detective in a police procedural. . DS Cross has Asperger’s Syndrome The author allows the reader to get inside DS Cross's head enabling the reader to see the world as DS Cross does. Good mystery with lots of twists and turns. Will be interesting to see how the series evolves.

Thank you to the author, Grove Atlantic/Atlantic Crime and NetGalley for the opportunity to preview the book

I’m really not sure why this is the first book I’ve had by Tim Sullivan! It won’t be the last, loved the writing style, loved George Cross and will continue to read books by this author!
