Description
A shocking reveal threatens to unravel Detective Superintendent Roy Grace's happy new life in Love You Dead, by award winning crime author Peter James. Grace is newly married, having moved to a country cottage with Chloe and their baby son. But his first, long-missing wife, now found, has left Grace a surprise greater than he could have imagined. Yet the police need Grace at work: an escaped murderer who left a bullet in him is back and a Black Widow is leaving an international trail of corpses after - in every sense - bleeding them dry. Now, she's come to Brighton for her next rich target . . . Although the Roy Grace novels can be read in any order, Love You Dead is the twelve title in the bestselling series. Enjoy more of the Brighton detective's investigations with Need You Dead and Dead If You Don't. Now a major ITV series, Grace, starring John Simm.

ReviewsPeter James is one of the best British crime authors -- Lee Child Peter James is one of the best crime writers in the business -- Karin Slaughter No one can deny James's success as a crime novelist . . . The Grace stories almost always go to the top of the bestseller lists, not least because they are supremely well-told. James writes meticulously researched police procedurals, so informed that you can smell the canteen coffee . . . enthralling * Daily Mail * Peter James has penetrated the inner workings of police procedures, and the inner thoughts and attitudes of real detectives, as no English crime writer before him. His hero, Roy Grace, may not be the most lively cop, nor the most damaged by drink, weight or misery, but he's one of the most believable * The Times *
