About this listen

Detective Superintendent Roy Grace faces his most mysterious case yet in the gripping crime novel Need You Dead, by award winning author Peter James.

Lorna Belling, desperate to escape the marriage from hell, falls for the charms of a man who promises her the earth. But, as Lorna soon finds, life seldom follows the plans you’ve made.

When the body of a woman is found, Grace is called to the scene. At first it looks an open-and-shut case with a clear prime suspect. That is, until Grace realizes there is a darker, far more terrifying alternative . .

Although the Roy Grace novels can be listened to in any order, Need You Dead is the thirteenth title in the bestselling series. Enjoy more of the Brighton detective’s investigations with Dead If You Don’t and Dead at First Sight.

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

Peter James never disappoints. Weyman's narration is superb. Finishing this book left me hungry for the next, as always.

Marvelous

I love Peter James' Roy Grace mysteries!
His Grace series have the same attention to detail and descriptive prose as some of the great English mystery writers of the past, but with a totally modern slant.
The development of his characters, through the series, keeps my interest up to see what happens with them all in book after book.
In Need You Dead, I kept hoping that Roy's arrogant boss, Pew, would finally be taken down, but you will have to read the book, with its twists and turns to find that out!
Being a part of Grace's thinking and agonizing to solve the mystery, is also a great technique to keep my interest up to the end.
I recommend reading the Roy Grace series in order, or as close as you can, to keep up with the characters, both good and bad, as they move through the author's clever twists and turns of Roy Grace's career and life.

Love the narrator Daniel Weyman. Have heard him before in the Roy Grace series and he does make it an enjoyable experience.



Brilliant.

Very good series with this newest book satisfying the fans of present day British police procedurals: plodding coppers, high speed car chases, high tech crime fighting tools and no tech but highly evolved people readers. I am a big fan of this author's work.

But a great tale. I like the frequency of the chapters which sometimes adds to the suspense. Charactisation all helps hold one’s interest.

A bit wordy

My favourite detective delivered again! I loved this book! The degrees of separation theme always fascinates me.

I want to make special mention to the narrator. By far the most enjoyable audible performer I have listened to.

Thanks again!

Compelling!
