Dive into a gripping British crime thriller with The Cyclist, the second installment in the acclaimed DS Cross Mysteries series—where every detail matters, and nothing is ever as it seems.

When a brutally damaged body is uncovered at a construction site in Bristol, the investigation begins with a daunting challenge: identifying the victim. Enter DS George Cross, a brilliant and unconventional detective known for noticing the smallest details others miss.

With no name and no clear leads, Cross must piece together the victim’s life from subtle clues—faint tan lines, scars, and physical evidence that suggest a competitive amateur cyclist with a dangerous reliance on performance-enhancing drugs. As the picture sharpens, so does the mystery.

Driven by ambition and secrets, the victim lived a life of hidden risks. But how far was he willing to go to win—and who might have wanted him dead?

Atmospheric, intelligent, and intricately plotted, The Cyclist is a compelling crime novel that blends forensic detail with psychological depth. Perfect for fans of British detective fiction, slow-burn mysteries, and character-driven investigations.
