Detective Superintendent Roy Grace is finally moving on with his life. His wife, Sandy, disappeared ten years ago, and he has fallen in love again and is about to be a father for the first time. Life is suddenly going smoothly, until a series of brutal rapes take place in Brighton that are very similar to rape cases he was working on right before his wife went missing. In 1997, one of the victims was never found, and Roy always thought that the rapist accidently committed murder, but could never prove it. Could the new cases help him finally solve the decade old case?As with James’s other novels, Dead Like You is full of fast pacing, action, and intrigue. The thriller moves easily between the past cases and the present cases, effectively building up drama. Although a long book, readers easily get caught up with the cases and the pages fly by. An international bestselling author from England, Peter James deserved to be better known to US mystery readers.
This is one of the best books I have read in a long time -- I can't wait to read all of the other Roy Grace novels. I also explored the author's website at http://www.peterjames.com and it is fascinating. Tommy
