Not Dead Yet (Ds Roy Grace 8)

Product Information

I felt like James included too many characters too soon, but that's probably my fault for starting at book 8. The team splits to investigate a shocking attack on the music scene and a gruesome discovery on a pig farm.

Her agent has promised it will be the next The King’s Speech and Gaia is convinced the stars are Oscar aligned. But the hints of other crimes Tempe’s identification uncovers, particularly crimes against children, spur her on to redouble her efforts despite the new M. Ruthless gangs, operating with military precision, have discovered a new black market flourishing in the shadows – an unthinkable source of wealth even more profitable than drugs. Soon Grace comes to the frightening realization that he may have underestimated just how dangerous this lady is. The first series covered the events of the first two books, Dead Simple and Looking Good Dead , while the second covered Not Dead Enough , Dead Man’s Footsteps and Dead Tomorrow across three 120-minute films.

Kipp Brown, successful businessman and compulsive gambler, is having the worst run of luck of his life. When Red Westwood meets handsome, charming and rich Bryce Laurent through an online dating agency, there is an instant attraction. Carly Chase is still traumatised after being in a fatal traffic accident which kills a teenage student from Brighton University. She has just driven into the underground car park beneath the block of flats where they live in Brighton. Initially the story hits the ground running and when we see Gaia arrive in Brighton there are already two plots running through the book.

I love this series and it really gets better as characters are developed and I can't wait to start the next one in the series. Enter Roy Grace and his sidekick, the dapper Glenn Branson, who already have their hands full with a torso discovered in the sewers of a chicken farm: foul play indeed.They desperately want another child, but when they find out they are both carriers of a rogue gene, they realize the odds of their next child contracting the disease are high.

These books can be read as standalones, but for following the changes and growth in main characters, reading it as a series provides the best reading experience IMO. I hope they're able to improve things and make it a bit more exciting, otherwise it could just fade away, and that would be a shame. The first time [he] saw Brighton’s Royal Pavilion, he was smitten […] he had never seen anything like it before in his life. A fatal car accident that was anything but accidental has jarred loose a stash of methamphetamines and cash that’s become the center of a battle between the Sons of Freedom, Bakken County’s traditional drug sellers, and MS-13, the Salvadorian upstarts who are muscling in on their territory. This is followed by two different paragraphs within 50 or so pages of Roy Grace rhapsodizing to himself about how much he loves his job and in almost the same words.Full details of your rights under the Distance Selling Regulations are available in the UK from your local Citizens' Advice Bureau or your Local Authority's Trading Standards Office. Grace finds himself attempting to move on with his life as that milestone is fast approaching whilst juggling his career and trying to solve the latest crime that has taken place in the city. Soon Grace and his team will find themselves in a race against time to save the life of a young street kid, while a desperate mother will stop at nothing to save her daughter’s life. I have read each and every one of the Roy Grace series and I would imagine like many others was looking forward to the latest book. A rather patchy set-up, but a truly nail biting second half of the book as the disparate threads start to converge!

I also liked the author’s nods to social networking and some real-life actors and actresses- it made it feel very ‘now’ and provided shreds of believability. I am finding Sandy one very interesting mystery, she makes you think there was so much more to the disappearance and her relationship with Roy. Right before megastar Gaia travels to England for a big movie role, her look-alike assistant is murdered outside Gaia's gate. Peter James's bestselling Roy Grace series has been translated into thirty-seven languages, with sales worldwide of over eighteen million copies.She leaves behind no memories worth keeping: her husband is dead, her boss has made no bones about disliking her, and she’s looking forward to new responsibilities and the higher salary underwritten by North Dakota’s sudden oil boom. Gaia’s personal safety is put at risk by a stalker and Sussex Police have the unenviable task of protecting her during the filming. As always, the locations are firmly rooted in Sussex, in places known – and, in the case of the Royal Pavilion – loved by Sussex readers.
