Dead Like You

Product Information

The sixth in the DS Roy Grace series follows the themes established in previous novels, but is written to enable new readers to start the series here without needing to read the previous titles. Grace is a senior officer in the Brighton and Hove CID, with special responsibility for cold cases. In the past five books (summed up briefly for new readers) he has not had much opportunity to fulfil this role given the numerous contemporary cases he's solved over the past year (an amazingly varied year!). Now, Grace looks through some of these neglected old cases as the year approaches its end, determined to make inroads. Basımla ilgili hoşuma gitmeyen bir diğer detay 1997 ile bugün arasında gidip gelen hikayede her bir bölüm arasına en az iki boş sayfa olması. Üzerine sadece 1 sayfalık bölümleri de eklerseniz toplam 5 sayfada sadece bir sayfa hikaye kalıyor. Dolayısıyla da hem hikayeyle bağ kuramıyorsunuz hem de atlaya atlaya gitmiş hissiyatı alıyorsunuz. He is married to Lara James (m. 2015). [2] His first, 19-year marriage was to Georgina Wilkin, from 1979 until 1998.

This is the first Peter James book I’ve read, and it lands, I think, five books into a series following detective Roy Grace. In Dead Like You, Grace is after a brutal rapist whose M.O. begins to look very much like that of an number of unresolved cold cases that are sitting on his desk for review; those of the ‘Shoe Man’. kitapta tüm yanlış kullanılan noktalama işaretleri ve yazım hataları için Artemis Yayınları'na yazıklar olsun. Cleo kimi zaman Cloe, kimi zaman Cole. Operasyona değil durmadan Pperasyona gidiyorlar. Yanlış yazılanlar klavyede hep bir harf yanı. Belli ki aceleyle yazılmış ve okunmadan basılmış. Yes there is some forward development of the character, but compared to the other books in the series it seems that DS Grace and the rest of his team are secondary characters this time around with what felt like much less than a quarter of the story given over to them and their detection of the case. Maybe Peter James was struggling this time with where to take Grace etc. Maybe his publisher edited it down to a more manageable length. Who knows. Either way it didn't feel like a DS Grace novel, more like a spin off in which he and his team had a cameo role. Think CSI: Miami with a character from one of the other franchises popping up. I do love John Simm’s portrayal of Roy Grace as he turns in yet another calm and measured performance. In Dead Like You, Grace appears to be making great strides in his relationship with Dr Cleo Morey, although the path of true love never runs smoothly, and if there is any doubt about that then Grace only needs to look to DS Glenn Branson for evidence.

What has happened to Peter James? I very much liked his first four books but suddenly, with his last book, found myself skimming through it, being bored.

He has fallen in love and is going to marry his girlfriend, Cleo, who is pregnant with their child. What an episode this is! From the very opening scenes you get that ominous sense that something dark is about to happen. With two separate events happening at the hotel on the same night, we are swiftly introduced to a number of key suspects in what turns out to be a serious sexual assault. Amongst them are a number of serving police officers, the key one of which is Grace’s new boss, ACC Cassian Pewe, portrayed in excellently smug and affected style by Sam Hoare. He and Grace have history and this new investigation in which Pewe becomes one of the prime suspects will not help calm the waters.His 1992 novel Prophecy was adapted into the first episode of the 1995 Chiller TV series.

Ύστερα από ένα πρωτοχρονιάτικο πάρτι, μια γυναίκα ζει έναν βάναυσο βιασμό καθώς επιστρέφει στο δωμάτιό της. Μια εβδομάδα αργότερα, μια άλλη γυναίκα δέχεται επίθεση. Ο δράστης παίρνει τα παπούτσια και των δύο θυμάτων. Ο αστυνομικός διευθυντής Ρόι Γκρέις συνειδητοποιεί ότι αυτές οι νέες υποθέσεις έχουν πολλές ομοιότητες με μια ανεξιχνίαστη σειρά εγκλημάτων που είχε συγκλονίσει την πόλη πριν από πολλά χρόνια. Ο τότε δράστης είχε ονομαστεί «Παπουτσάς» και ήταν ύποπτος για τον βιασμό πέντε γυναικών προτού δολοφονήσει το έκτο θύμα του και εξαφανιστεί. Τον αντιγράφει κάποιος ή ο «Παπουτσάς» επέστρεψε; Όταν περισσότερες γυναίκες δέχονται επίθεση, ο Γκρέις πιστεύει ότι έχουν να κάνουν με τον ίδιο άντρα. Και ότι ανατρέχοντας στο παρελθόν –μια εποχή που εκείνος και η εξαφανισμένη πλέον σύζυγός του , η Σάντι, ζούσαν ευτυχισμένοι μαζί– ίσως θα μπορέσει να βρει το κλειδί για να λύσει το μυστήριο. Σύντομα ο Γκρέις και η ομάδα του θα βρεθούν σε έναν απελπισμένο αγώνα ενάντια στον χρόνο για να εντοπίσουν και να σώσουν τη ζωή του νέου έ��του θύματος…" (Περίληψη οπισθοφύλλου)
