How on earth is he meant to know what present to get her?<br /><br />Soon after, one cold winter morning, Cross goes to inspect a dead body found tangled in thick hedgerow on the outskirts of private farmland. It appears the young man was trying to scramble through the hedge when he died, that he was running away from someone...<br /><br />With frost on the ground obscuring evidence and secretive neighbours not giving anything away, finding the killer won't be easy. But even with the odds stacked against him, DS Cross is more confident in solving this murder than successfully working out what to get his mother for Christmas…<br /><br /><b>Why readers love this series...</b><br />'Every generation has its iconic detective - Holmes, Poirot and Morse - but Cross is emerging as the one for now.' <b><i>DAILY MAIL</i></b><br />'DS George Cross shot to the top of my favourites when I first encountered him. The Teacher shows him at his best.' <b>MARI HANNAH</b>
