The thirteenth Detective Superintendent Roy Grace novel from the highly acclaimed number one bestselling author, Peter James.
Peter James is the international bestselling author of many award-winning novels. His Roy Grace series, set in Brighton, has been translated into thirty-seven languages with worldwide sales of over eighteen million copies, and has given him eleven consecutive Sunday Times number ones. In 2015 WHSmith customers publicly voted him the Greatest Crime Author of All Time and in 2016 he became the recipient of the coveted CWA Diamond Dagger lifetime achievement, awarded for sustained excellence.
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

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

In my thirty four years of policing, never have I come across a
writer who so accurately depicts “The Job“
