THE BRAND NEW DETECTIVE SUPERINTENDENT ROY GRACE NOVEL Now a major TV series starring John Simm. 'Peter James is one of the best British crime writers' - Lee Child Niall and Eden Paternoster start their Sunday the same way they always do - with a long drive, a visit to a country house and a quick stop at the local supermarket on the way home. But this Sunday ends differently - because while Niall waits and waits in the car park for Eden to pick up supplies, Eden never returns. She's not waiting for him at home, and none of their family or friends have heard from her. Gone without a trace, Niall is arrested on suspicion of her murder. When DS Roy Grace is called in to investigate, it doesn't take long to realize that nothing is quite as it seems - and this might be his most mysterious case yet . . . 'One of James's most emotionally engaging books' - The Mirror Sunday Times number one bestseller Peter James returns with another installment in his award-winning Roy Grace novels.

Reviews

"Immensely satisfying. . . . James juggles his multiple story lines with panache as the action hurtles to a shattering conclusion." --Publishers Weekly starred review of Love You Dead "James is a master of constructing the kind of plot that twists and turns, ensnaring the reader in its grasp." --Booklist on Love You Dead "Not since Judith Rossner's Looking for Mr. Goodbar has a novel so wrenchingly portrayed the perils of looking for love in all the wrong places. . . . The action is fast and furious, but, as in all novels in this series, it's held together by the unflappable character of Superintendent Grace. . . . James has won WHSmith's Best Crime Author of All Time award and the British Crime Writers' Association's Diamond Dagger award. Not to be missed." --Booklist starred review of Dead at First Sight "This skillful twister shows why James was awarded the 2016 CWA Diamond Dagger." --Publishers Weekly starred review of Need You Dead "This British police procedural has action, car chases, gory deaths, and more; totally satisfying. James rates with Ian Rankin, Colin Dexter, and Peter Robinson." --Library Journal on Need You Dead
