Summary

The unfailingly shrewd and uniquely brilliant DS George Cross is back...

'One of the most iconic British fictional detectives of the 21st century.' DAILY MAIL

Measure twice. Cut once.

A bespoke tailor boards the 10:00 train from Bristol to London. Before it reaches Bath, he’s found dead in the toilet, his throat slit and a plastic bag pulled over his head.

DS George Cross deduces that this wasn’t a robbery – nothing about the killing is random.

It’s an execution.

George’s investigation brings him dangerously close to a cold and merciless world. And is it his imagination or is he being followed?

With the highest conviction rate of any officer in the force, someone will do anything to stop George from getting to the truth.

This time, the next cut could be meant for him...

Perfect for fans of MW Craven, Ann Cleeves and Joy Ellis, this is the eighth book in the million-copy-bestselling George Cross Mystery series, which can be enjoyed in any order.
