Dead Simple. Peter James (Revised) | 
pickIn an unusual twist for me, I watched the series of this prior to reading the books as I hadn‘t realized it was a book series first. That said, I really enjoyed this take on the police procedural and that Det Roy Grace as more depth and compassion than many of the literary police detectives. The book hewed closely to the episode of the series but I‘ll definitely be reading more.
pickWow! I‘ve heard so many good things about this series and I‘m so glad I jumped on the bandwagon! I am addicted to this series now and this was only the first book! I can‘t wait to read more about Roy Grace! One of my favorites by far! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟!
pickI started this yesterday when I couldn‘t find my other Kindle. Mainly because Britbox told me there is a tv series available in a few weeks. I don‘t love the paranormal angle but thankfully it didn‘t play too large of a role. The characters and story definitely allowed me to overlook it for the most part. 👍🏼 #StartASeries #SeriesRead2021
so-soRead in 2020. I thought it was a fun thriller, but not outstanding.

Today I‘m putting forward one of my favourite detective series, the Roy Grace Series. I will always be grateful to this series as it helped get me through the death of my mother. After the funeral I escaped into the first book of the series why I tried to process events! This is an excellent series set in Brighton on the south coast of England. I love the way they present team meetings, & wonderful characters

Growing up near Brighton, every Friday night we had a #Chippytea picked up by my dad on his way home from work, and eaten straight from the newspaper at the kitchen table, dowsed in lots of onion vinegar (the vinegar from the picked onion jar)😋🐟📰
So in honor of my dad, this is the first book in his favorite local detective series, still going strong at book #26! I‘ll read it #oneday, seeing as it‘s set where I‘m from.😊
pickThe characters that feature in the book are very well described by the author and he portrays them in a way where you can imagine the characters and you do start to slightly think ahead of them once you know what the characters are like and you start to notice the way that they think. It was addictive and it kept me going back for more, it was like a drug to me I couldn't get enough of it!
pickThis book has alot of twists and turns to keep you wanting to know what will happen next. Peter James is one of my favs, haven't read one of his books in awhile, why did it take me so long.👍👍❤❤❤

Not one book but a whole series today. The Roy Grace Detective Series is one of my all time favourite series and hard to separate out one book! Love the way you feel central to the investigation in this series, and especially are part of the twice daily briefings. The whole series is recommended. The tagged book is the first one in the series.
Sometimes in the middle of literary fiction I get bogged down. Usually a thriller /police procedural will wake me back up.This one did! With plenty of twists and turns plus multiple surprises.Meeting Roy Grace,a complicated but clear headed detective was a treat. @Andrew65 always says how much he enjoys his series, I am glad I gave it a spin.
pickTop notch crime fiction by one of Britains best. The hook gets in deep and the tension is relentless. If you like police procedurals this is a must read. And Peter is one of the nicest guys you ever want to meet.

Today book one of the Detective Roy Grace Series is available for Q8.49 on Kindle and books 2 - 7 all available for Q8.99 each. Great time to catch a bargain. This is one of my favourite all time Detective series.
Playing catch Up. #MarchMadness #FavoriteDetective #FavouriteDetective So many favourites to choose from, but gone with Roy Grace. Love these books. Starts with Dead Simple, but hope you aren‘t claustrophobic!
#NoOneKnows what happened to Roy Grace's wife, she just disappeared one day - run away? Abducted? Murdered? This forms a long shadow across Roy Grace's personal life, and to some extent his professional life. This is one of my favourite detective series, set in Brighton, England. #Rocktober
Relaxing morning starting my new book #peterjames #deadsimple
This hash tag is Dead Simple. It just has to be one of my favourite of all Detective series, the Roy Grace series which is set in Brighton, England. Every one of the thirteen books has Dead in the title. I have read and loved everyone. Of the first 12 and the great news is a new one was published this month so one to look forward to. 😊
I do recommend this series if you like high quality police procedurals. This is the first book. ❤️ #death
so-soFor the first book in s series, it was pretty good. I have read that as the series progresses the books get better, so I'm hoping that persevering with it will pay off. If you like Inspector Banks, DI Lynley or Rebus, this series will be right up your alley. My #LRC8 #Over400Pages book for the #LitsyReadingChallenge
Currently halfway through Dead Simple by Peter James, this is The First Book In A Series You've Never Read Before for the #popsugarreadingchallenge & it's my #LRC8 book for #over400pages for the #LitsyReadingChallenge I've finished 11 squares so far!
pickA stag night prank gone horribly wrong and a race against time to find a missing person. Plenty of twists and turns in what was my first (but definitely not my last) read of Peter James
"It's not the dead who harm people Roy. It's the living."
pickRead this little gem this week and loved it. Not sure how I've never heard of Peter James and his Roy Grace before but I'll be spending much more time with them in times ahead. Very good.
