Looking Good Dead (2007)
Spoilers AheadHad this novel been less than 150 pages I could have given it three stars but at 336 pages it’s simply horrible. There is so little “story” to this story that it could have been squeezed into a short story or a novella at best. This is quite possibly the worst-paced “thriller” I’ve ...
La mort n'attend pas (2012)
The fiftth in the Roy Grace series, this is a cracking little wedge of a book and a great page turner. I had been meaning to get around to starting this series, after I had the pleasure of getting to know Peter after doing a number of events at a central London bookshop I worked in and I really w...
Ten dode opgeschreven (2009)
5 books into this series and I have to say that I am enjoying it. I am however, still seeking the elusive 5 star novel that always feels so tantalizingly close. Of them all so far, this one feels as though it got the closest. This story about human trafficking and organ harvesting was both fascin...
Mirties glėby (2013)
Another doorstop of a read from Peter James. But, unlike some authors who don't know when to stop writing, the book wasn't a chore to read. I have to say that I think Peter is one of the best authors writing in the UK right now, I can't think of many who write a police procedural better than he d...
Doodskus (2010)
Another installment of the Roy Grace series. I didn't like this one as much as the others, but I still found it interesting. My enjoyment of the book was lessened because, to be honest, I found the back and forth in time periods distracting and confusing at times. I wasn't particularly fond of...
Senin Gibi Ölü (2013)
Another book i picked up recently in my quest to read new notable authors. Peter James was well liked and so i chose this book for my reading, especially because it's a long mystery novel.DS Grace is working on old cases and that reminds him of his shoe-man case. Based in 1998, Grace was never ab...
Dodemansrit (2011)
The seventh in the Roy Grace series, Dead Man's Grip is a cracking little wedge of a book and a great page turner. I had been meaning to get around to starting this series, after I had the pleasure of getting to know Peter after doing a number of events at a central London bookshop I worked in an...
So gut wie tot (2008)
In my opinion this is his best so far.There is something of an international flavour to this story, somewhat of a change to his style so far.The story includes parts that occurred many years earlier and is all the better for it. For those that dislike flashbacks; I'm one of them; never fear, we a...
Op sterven na dood (2008)
I have liked all of the previous Grace novels but they are starting to grate on me a bit now. This one had a weaker plot than most, and I felt that it wasn't as action packed or as tense as some of James' other novels. Not until the end anyway.My previous reviews have stated that I enjoy the le...
