Bloomsbury Publishing Tim Pears West Country Trilogy 3 Books Collection Set - The Horseman, The Wanderers, The Redeemed
The Horseman 1911. In a forgotten valley on the Devon-Somerset border, the seasons unfold, marked only by the rituals of the farming calendar. Twelve-year-old Leopold Sercombe skips school to help his father, a carter. Skinny and pale, Leo dreams of a job on the estate's stud farm. He is breaking a colt for his father when a boy dressed in a Homburg, breeches and riding boots appears. The Redeemed It is 1916. The world has gone to war, and young Leo Sercombe, hauling coal aboard the HMS Queen Mary, is a long way from home. The wild, unchanging West Country roads of his boyhood seem very far away from life aboard a battlecruiser, a universe of well-oiled steel, of smoke and spray and sweat, where death seems never more than a heartbeat away. The Wanderers Lonely and grieving for her exiled best friend, thirteen-year-old Lottie feels a prisoner. Her only solace is her study of the natural world around her father's estate: the strange profusion of its plants, the beauty and brutality of its predators, its mysterious dances of life, death and survival.

A DS Cross Thriller Series By Tim Sullivan 3 Books Collection Set - Fiction - Paperback Bloomsbury Publishing
Titles in this Set: 1. The Dentist 2. The Cyclist 3. The Patient Description: The Dentist A cold case that has been ignored... A detective who fights for the voiceless. THE DETECTIVE Bristol detective DS George Cross might be difficult to work with – but his unfailing logic and determined pursuit of the truth means he is second to none at convicting killers. THE CRIME When the police dismiss a man's death as a squabble among the homeless community, Cross is not convinced; there are too many unanswered questions. Who was the unknown man whose weather-beaten body was discovered on Clifton Downs? And was the same tragedy that resulted in his life on the streets also responsible for his death? THE COLD CASE As Cross delves into the dead man's past, he discovers that the answers lie in a case that has been cold for fifteen years. Cross is the only person who can unpick the decades-old murder – after all, who better to decipher the life of a person who society has forgotten than a man who has always felt like an outsider himself? The Cyclist To solve any murder, you must first know your victim . . . THE DETECTIVE DS George Cross has unique and unmatchable talents. He uses a combination of logic, determination and, often, pedantry to get answers where others have failed for families who have long given up hope. So when a ravaged body is found in a local demolition site, it's up to Cross to piece together the truth from whatever fragments he can find. THE VICTIM Cross has little to go on, but from the faint tan lines on the ravaged body, and strange scars on his forearms, an identity gradually emerges: a male amateur cyclist; a reliance on performance-enhancing drugs. But what happened that led to this man's death? How did he end up here? And, most importantly, who is he? THE FAMILY In the face of ever-mounting challenges, including budget cuts and unreliable witnesses, Cross must first work out who the man is to have any chance of solving the murder. But in searching for this man's identity, Cross will come up against a lot that he is unfamiliar with – jealousy, ambition and a family tearing itself apart . . . The Patient No fingerprints. No weapon. No witnesses. Can DS Cross prove it was murder? THE DETECTIVE DS George Cross doesn't rely on guesswork and he has no time for false assumptions. He is a detective who goes off the evidence in front of him, not 'hunches' or 'gut feelings'. He does not know what these are. THE CLOSED CASE When a young woman is found dead, the Bristol Crime Unit is quick to rule it a suicide as the woman had a long history of drug abuse. But her mother is convinced it was murder, saying that her daughter had been clean for years and had been making strides in a new therapy programme. THE ANSWER As an outsider himself, DS Cross is drawn to cases involving the voiceless and dispossessed and, here, the evidence states that this woman was murdered – Cross just has to prove it. But under pressure from his boss to shut down the case...

A George Cross Mysteries (Book 4-7) By Tim Sullivan 4 Books Collection Set - Fiction - Paperback Bloomsbury Publishing (UK)Titles in this set: 1. The Politician (Book 4) 2. The Monk (Book 5) 3. The Teacher (Book 6) 4. The Bookseller (Book 7) Description: The Politician (Book 4) A burglary gone wrong – or a staged murder? George Cross loves puzzles, and the crime scene at the home of Bristol's former mayor is a complicated one. To most, it looks like a burglary gone wrong, but George can see this was murder. There's no shortage of potential killers: the online trolls the victim fought in her new life as a controversial blogger, her bitter political rivals, even her own family. With suspects everywhere and pressure mounting, George finds his usually impeccable logic challenged just when he needs it most. Because politics can be a dangerous game – especially for people who don't know the rules… The Monk (Book 5) A victim with no enemies. A murder with no motive. When the body of a monk is found savagely beaten in woodland near Bristol, DS George Cross discovers that nothing is known about the man's past. How can he unpick a crime when he doesn't know anything about the victim? And why would someone want to harm a monk? His past reveals that he had no enemies, although George learns he was exceedingly wealthy, that he sacrificed it all for his faith. For a man who has nothing, it seems strange that greed could be the motive for his murder. But greed is a sin after all... The Teacher (Book 6) The victim's worst enemy was himself. When an elderly man is found dead in his home, the angle of his neck says he fell down the stairs. The stab wound on his body tells a different story. In the weeks before his murder, Alistair Moreton changed. A recluse by nature, neighbours swear someone was living with him, someone he didn't want them to see. Moreton spent a lifetime making enemies and now DS George Cross needs to uncover which one finally struck back. Because in all of Alistair's years, there was something important he never learned. If you go through life hurting people, don't be surprised when they teach you a lesson. The Bookseller (Book 7) SOMEONE'S ABOUT TO TURN THEIR LAST PAGE... A bookseller is found dead in his shop on a quiet square in Bristol, surrounded by rare books, first editions and a shocking amount of blood. DS George Cross, usually the first to spot holes in a suspect's story, is distracted. His father's recent diagnosis has left him unsettled, relying on others in a way he is not comfortable with. It's impacting the case – and himself – more than he'd like to admit. The truth only gets murkier as George uncovers tales of lost manuscripts and rival dealers, revealing how dangerous the rarefied world of bookselling can be – especially when the suspects are so familiar with crime novels. They know exactly how to get away with murder.28,99 £*Shipping: 2,99 £Secure redirect to the provider
