The Dentist by Tim Sullivan

DS George Cross is extremely successful at his job. Having autism allows him to see things others don't, in addition to having a thoroughness and tenacity that is unmatched at the Bristol police station. Cross' latest case is the murder of Leonard Carpenter. Leonard was a former dentist who went missing years ago, was declared dead by his family, and has just been found dead near a gorge. Where has Leonard been all this time and why did he come back to his hometown of Bristol? Cross, his partner DS Josie Ottey and Police Staff Investigator Alice Mackenzie attempt to uncover the mystery of his death. The Dentist is the first book in the DS George Cross series with the next books being published over the next several months. A great read for those who enjoy British police procedurals.
