'Every generation has its iconic detective — Holmes, Poirot and Morse — but Cross is emerging as the one for now. Treasure him. ' <b><i>DAILY MAIL</i></b>

<b>The victim’s worst enemy was himself. </b>

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 George needs to uncover which one finally struck back. Because in all of Alistair's years, there was something important he never learned.

<b>If you go through life hurting people, don't be surprised when they teach you a lesson. </b>
