What are the Roy Grace books all about?

The detective is quite a down-to-earth guy who finds humor in situations despite his own tragic home affair. He can’t stop hoping that his wife will turn up at some point and that there is a logical explanation to her disappearance. Until then, however, he is a man haunted by his missing wife’s shadow.

So all she wants to do is get rid of her husband. Dead at First Sight is just the “Grace-fied” version of the popular saying “Love at First Sight.” This novel takes a very common and usually mild form of crime and turns it into something exciting, mysterious, and sinister. So what’s the story about?

Hollywood visits Brighton in the eighth installment of the Roy Grace series, and the stakes are higher than ever. The story then unfolds into something far more profound and dangerous as Grace finds connections to mobsters, criminal families, and personal vendettas spanning decades and multiple countries. With the help of plastic surgery, she managed to get beautiful. But what was the easiest and fastest way to get rich? Marrying a rich man. If you're used to mysteries set in cosy English villages, gritty London, or the distinguished university cities of Oxford and Cambridge, Brighton may seem a very different sort of setting. It's a quirky coastal town about 50 miles south of London, and though it's quite distinctly British, it has a dash of San Francisco about it (or perhaps we should say San Francisco has a touch of Brighton). The author still lives in the UK dividing his time between his house in Brighton and his apartment in London (Notting Hill). Peter James Awards
