About this ebook

Detective Superintendent Roy Grace unearths a powerful criminal network in the sinister crime novel Find Them Dead, by award winning author Peter James.

Ending his secondment to London’s Met Police, Roy Grace gets a tip-off about a drugs mastermind operating out of Brighton. On his first day back in his old job, he is called to a seemingly senseless murder.

Gradually, Grace’s investigation draws him into the evil sphere of an utterly ruthless drug dealer on trial. A man prepared to order the death of anyone it takes to enable him to walk free from court.

Sitting in the jury is Meg Magellan, whose daughter's life is being threatened by a stranger who tells her that if she ever wants to see her alive again, it is very simple. At the end of the trial, all she has to do is make sure the jury says just two words . . . Not guilty.

Although the Roy Grace novels can be read in any order, Find Them Dead is the sixteenth title in the bestselling series. Discover more of the Brighton detective’s investigations with Left You Dead.

Now a major ITV series, Grace, starring John Simm.

Ratings and reviews

I normally love the Roy Grace series, however, this was such a different style of story for this series, although written well, it didn't excite me enough to want to keep reading, a slow burning read rather then the anticipated excitement where you can't put the book down, it was a disappointing read and it has dulled my enthusiasm for the next book in the series, this may be my last purchase.

Once I started reading this book I didn't want to put it down! I love the Roy Grace series and can't wait for the next installment where hopefully karma finally catches up with ACC Cassien Pewe!

Another good Roy Grace book not the usual kind but enjoyed it all the same cant wait to read the next
