«James just gets better and better and deserves the success he has achieved with this first-class series»

Independent on Sunday

«Peter James has penetrated the inner workings of police procedures, and the inner thoughts and attitudes of real detectives, as no English crime writer before him. His hero, Roy Grace, may not be the most lively cop, nor the most damaged by drink, weight or misery, but he’s one of the most believable»

The Times

«Peter James is one of the best crime writers in the business»

Karin Slaughter, author of the Will Trent series

«Meticulous research gives his prose great authenticity . . . James manages to add enough surprises and drama that by the end you’re rooting for the police and really don’t know if they will finally get their men»
