Not Dead Enough

By Peter James

Book Overview

On the night Brian Bishop murdered his wife he was 60 miles away, asleep in bed at the time. At least that's the way it looks to Detective Superintendent Roy Grace, who is called in to investigate the kinky slaying of beautiful socialite Katie Bishop. Roy Grace soon starts coming to the conclusion that Bishop has performed the apparently impossible feat of being in two places at once. Has someone stolen his identity or is he simply a very clever liar? As Roy Grace digs deeper behind the fa ade of the Bishops' outwardly respectable lives, it becomes clear that everything is not at all as it first seemed. Then he digs just a little too far, and suddenly the fragile stability of his own troubled world is facing destruction.

Another good one!

A first for me...as I knew who the killer was with just over 200 pages still left to read!! - there are 610 pages altogether but I have to admit a sunny weekend in the garden and I raced through it. Having read the others in the Roy Grace series I felt safe in the knowledge that I'd get an interesting thriller with good characterisation and this didn't disappoint. Although there are quite a few characters and several storyline threads, they just add to the realism of the story. My only negative comment would be that I wish Grace's missing wife would turn up dead so he (and we!) can have some closure and he can move on relationship wise. That said I do think his feelings have been well written and have helped me as the reader, form a rounded picture of his character in my mind. Looking forward to the next.
