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 Cleo 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 bleeding them dry – in every sense. Now, she’s come to Brighton for her next wealthy target . . . Although the Roy Grace novels can be read in any order, Love You Dead is the twelfth 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.
