Books Included in This Collection:
Dead Simple
Dead Simple introduces Detective Superintendent Roy Grace and his first major case: a stag-night prank that spirals into disappearance, death, and a chilling reminder that danger can strike when you least expect it. The novel’s brisk pace, sharp dialogue, and cruelly clever twists set the template for Grace’s long-running, high-stakes investigations, establishing a grounded, procedural realism that feels earned rather than sensational. This opening book grounds readers in Grace’s world—its atmosphere, its rules, and the personal stakes that will echo across the series.
Books Included in This Collection:
Looking Good Dead
When a woman’s brutal murder shocks Brighton, Grace is drawn into a personal maze tied to his missing wife. The investigation blends forensic detail with psychological suspense, delivering a relentless pace and a moral spine that challenges Grace’s beliefs about truth, justice, and love. This second installment sharpens the series’ trademark blend of procedural precision and urban grit, while deepening the emotional core that makes Grace more than a crime-solver.
Books Included in This Collection:
Not Dead Enough
A beautiful socialite lies dead, with the prime suspect’s alibi suddenly fragile. As Grace closes in, the case tests truth, loyalty, and the cost of pursuing the killer too far. The tension thickens as alternate identities and misdirections surface, pushing Grace to question what’s real and what someone will do to protect a secret. A tightly wound thriller that thickens the plot with every clue uncovered.
Books Included in This Collection:
Dead Man's Footsteps
Against the backdrop of global headlines, a Brighton man hides a dangerous past while attempting to escape through a fresh start abroad. Grace follows a trail of deceit, violence, and the fragile line between ordinary life and a killer’s carefully shielded history. A kinetic, globe-spanning entry that expands the Grace universe while staying rooted in the city and its cast of suspects.
Books Included in This Collection:
Dead Tomorrow
A missing teenager’s body surfaces, and the clock starts ticking on a race against time. The discovery sends ripples through Grace’s personal and professional life as new victims emerge and the pattern grows more chilling. This installment leans into moral ambiguity and high-tension sequencing, delivering shocking reveals and a finale that lingers in the reader’s mind.
Books Included in This Collection:
Dead Like You
In the Metropole Hotel, a chilling assault unleashes a wave of fear and pursuit across Brighton. Grace must piece together a chilling pattern as another attack follows, with the offender leaving a disturbing signature. The book tightens the net around a calculating antagonist and tests Grace’s resolve, balancing procedural craft with a haunting sense of creeping danger that defines the later Grace installments.
