About this listen

 'One of the best British crime writers' – Lee Child


A shocking reveal threatens to unravel Detective Superintendent Roy Grace’s happy new life . . .

Grace is newly married, having moved to a country cottage with Cleo and their baby son. But his first, long-missing wife, now found, has left Grace a surprise greater than he could have imagined.

Yet the police need Grace at work: an escaped murderer who left a bullet in him is back and a Black Widow is leaving an international trail of corpses after – in every sense – bleeding them dry. Now, she’s come to Brighton for her next rich target . . .

Love You Dead is a race-against-time instalment of the award-winning Grace series by Peter James, now a major ITV show starting John Simm. Don't miss the latest pulse-pounding instalment, One Of Us Is Dead.

Critic Reviews

Peter James is one of the best British crime authors (Lee Child)
Peter James is one of the best crime writers in the business (Karin Slaughter)
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
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
