The Bookseller is the
seventh in the series. When the body of a bookseller is
discovered, collapsed in a pool of blood in his Bristolian bookshop, it
is immediately clear that he has been murdered. What is unclear is how
someone could have met such a violent end in this quiet, peaceful place.
DS Cross is adept at dismissing red-herrings but a worrying
development in his personal life has left him hopelessly distracted,
leaving his usual means of deciphering evidence challenged. The world
of bookselling is a quiet one, but it is full of passionate and
ambitious characters. They know a rare book equals a big payout – and
their extensive reading means they also know the best ways to get away
with murder…
