ⓘ About Tim Sullivan

Cross is relentlessly obsessed with patterns, detail and logic, which is what makes him one of the best detectives to ever practice. But his methods have not made him any friends among his superiors and colleagues. In fact, there are many who would love to see him fall. Soon after, there are all manner of red flags as suspicious errors and inconsistencies are found in the original investigation. The man who worked on the case is recently retired and just like his many friends in the forces, strongly dislikes Cross. “The Cyclist” by Tim Sullivan opens to the death of an amateur cyclist that took his sport very seriously. Cross deduced all this from the man’s muscular legs and odd tan lines during the autopsy. When the autopsy is concluded, the investigators find some unusual blood work.
