The Monk

’George Cross is becoming one of my favourite detectives.’ ELLY GRIFFITHS

To find a murderer, you need a motive . . .

THE CASE
DS George Cross is called to investigate when the body of a monk is found savagely beaten in a woodland near Bristol.

THE QUESTION
Nothing is known about Brother Dominic’s past. How can Cross unpick a crime when he doesn’t know anything about the victim? And why would someone want to harm a monk?

THE PAST
They learn that Brother Dominic had no enemies - or, at least, none that are obvious. But his past reveals that he was once a wealthy man, 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 . . .

Perfect for fans of M.W. Craven, Peter James and Joy Ellis, The Monk is part of the DS George Cross thriller series, which can be read in any order.
