About this listen

 'One of the best British crime writers' – Lee Child


Roy Grace is about to find out just how dangerous a dead man can be . . .

Arriving late for a funeral, James Taylor spots a familiar face in the church – his old schoolfriend Rufus Rorke.

Except it couldn’t be him, could it? Because two years ago Taylor attended Rufus’s funeral. He even delivered the eulogy.

On the other side of Brighton, at Police HQ, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace has been alerted to a number of suspicious deaths that he can’t get out of his mind. But how are they linked? And could they possibly be connected to Rufus Rorke?

One Of Us Is Dead is a race-against-time instalment of the award-winning Grace series by Peter James, now a major ITV show starring John Simm.

A gripping story is well written with excellent narration. The complex storyline was easy to follow and the characters easy to track, The downside was it was difficult to put down. I did not fall asleep once on a long listen.

This was better than a film.

Interesting, engaging, gripping and compelling.
I thoroughly enjoyed this listen. No slumps, no dead spots. I particularly enjoyed the novel and inventive ways the killer dispatched his victims. Thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish! Infact, I'm going to listen to it again.

Fantastic! One of, if not his best yet!

Another fantastic addition to the series

Having read all the Roy Grace series I would consider this to be up there with the best. Had everything to keep you gripped from the beginning. Can’t wait for the next one.

One of the very best

Binged it in two days. Still the same high standard of writing and narration as the very first.

Brilliant

Peter James delivers yet another relevant crime story. Crypto currency and the criminal activities via the dark web is the theme for this with characters using 3 D printers in a very disturbing way of how the items cannot be traced. Thank you Peter for a very enjoyable read albeit via audio for my drive to and from work. You are keeping us on the edge of our seats with regards to Bruno and Pewe too. I can't wait for your next book
