Detective Lauren Pengelly has only been part of the Penzance police force for less than two years, but that’s enough time to know that the sleepy Cornish town doesn’t see many murders. So, when the bones of a woman with a hole in her skull are discovered behind a derelict cottage, she immediately assumes the worst. Rallying her team, Lauren is flooded with a strange sense of relief when the bones turn out to be almost twenty years old, not a recent victim. But it quickly turns to dread when she receives her second heart-stopping call of the day–a little girl, Isla, has been kidnapped.

Editorial reviews
Publisher's Summary
An obsessive psychopath must be stopped whilst Detective Superintendent Roy Grace also deals with a very personal mystery in Want You Dead, by award winning crime writer Peter James.
Grace’s wife Sandy is officially declared dead after being missing for a decade, allowing him to marry the mother of his baby son. But Sandy’s disappearance is unexplained for a reason.
Bryce Laurent doesn’t want his ex girlfriend to move on. Terrified by Bryce’s dark side, she seeks police protection. But Bryce will not be stopped, determined to destroy everything and everyone she has ever known and loved – and then her too . . .
Although the Roy Grace novels can be listened to in any order, Want You Dead is the tenth thrilling title in the bestselling series. Enjoy more of the Brighton detective’s investigations with You Are Dead and Love You Dead.
Now a major ITV series, Grace, starring John Simm.
Critic Reviews
"James ratchets up the tension to an almost unbearable level in his 10th Roy Grace thriller as Bryce’s game of cat and mouse works towards a terrifying conclusion." (Bella)
"Peter James has written another gripping and authentic police procedural which his fans will love." (Sunday Express)

Good storytelling but hard-to-believe elements
I found listening to the book entertaining and the performance of the reader was great. But there were some elements of the story I found very hard to believe and this undermined my overall enjoyment of it. Mainly, why would people not immediately make the connection between Red's recent romantic past and what happened to her new boyfriend, including trained police, a psychologist, her family, etc.? It seems highly unlikely. Secondly, I found Red not a very sympathetic character. Although I guess it can be explained by shock, her reaction to what happened to Carl seemed very selfish, as exemplified by her tantrum about not wanting to eat lamb when she visits her parents - I mean, in the scheme of things, it doesn't seem very important? But as I say, the book is OK - just not great.

Repeat of an earlier book?
I quite enjoyed this book although it seemed a bit dragged out and a bit like an earlier Roy Grace which featured a narcissist serial killer.
Have enjoyed other books in this series more.
