About this listen

'One of James’s most emotionally engaging books' – Mirror

When a woman disappears into thin air, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace must face his most engrossing case yet. From CWA Diamond Dagger award-winning author Peter James.

*****

Niall and Eden Paternoster start their Sunday the same way they always do – with a long drive, a visit to a country house and a quick stop at the local supermarket on the way home.

But this Sunday ends differently – because while Niall waits and waits in the car park for Eden to pick up supplies, Eden never returns. She’s not waiting for him at home, and none of their family or friends have heard from her.

Gone without a trace, Niall is arrested on suspicion of her murder. When DS Roy Grace is called in to investigate, it doesn’t take long to realize that nothing in this case is quite as it seems . . .

Left You Dead is the seventeenth thrilling crime novel in the Roy Grace series. Enjoy more of the Brighton detective’s investigations with Dead Simple, Looking Good Dead and Not Dead Enough.

Now a major TV series starring John Simm.

This book should come with a trigger warning. One of the side plots is very triggering.
I have really come to despise Cleo, she gives step parents a bad name, he's our son when he's good but Roy's son when he's bad.

Really not a Cleo fan

Loved it but pre guessed early on scenario.
would like background special effects added to back up audio quality but overall very good and very sad in what happened.

cliffhanging ending

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.

Superb story full of twists and turns, just desserts and a horrifying shock in the middle.
Thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. So much so, that I'm going to listen to it again straight away!

One of his best! Loved it!

Listened to all of Peter James’s Roy Grace books and loved them all. Like getting to know the characters. The narrator is the best although I couldn’t listen to him in another book as I completely relate him to Grace. I don’t like giving the stories away in a review but this was an interesting one.

Brilliant as always.

This is definitely Peter James on top form.
Pleased with myself that I had spotted a possible alternative scenario,I then discover a number of twists and turns to keep you guessing.
His feud with his old nemesis also appears to be moving in the right direction but who knows!
There are plenty of loose ends and potential plot developments to lead nicely into the next instalment of the Grace series which cannot come too soon.

The Best Grace Yet?

Worth the wait.. And Daniel is always such an outstanding narrator.. I wish he would narrate more novels

Great as always

Hallelujah! I couldn't put this book down. Grace is back! After the last book, I was worried that Peter James had lost his touch but I can confirm this book is outstanding. You will be gripped from the beginning to the end. Fast and furious the story takes you through twists and turns, leaving you guessing to the end. Marks out of ten? Well, it's a ten from me.

Back to the Grace we all love.

Loved it. Incredibly detailed plot. Believable. Very sad sub plot too. Lots of family and character detail which makes it more real. Obviously very carefully researched re police procedure etc.

Intricately detailed plot and superb narration
