Ever since I was 15 years old when I read my first novel
cover to cover, Arcade by Robert Maxxe, I’ve been keeping a book list in which
I record every book I read, the date I finished it, whether it was a paper back
or hardback, how many pages it had and my rating out of ten.
I thought you may be interested in what I had to write about
Dead Man’s Grip…
Thursday 4 December 2014, Finished reading Dead Man’s Grip
by Peter James.
Hard Back (HB) 406 pages, 10/10
It’s been a while since I’ve read a Roy Grace/Peter James
book. I had been reading his Perfect People novel and though 388 pages in, I
put it aside to read Dead Man’s Grip which I conveniently came across in a charity
shop.
I would say this is his best Roy Grace story I’ve read, but
won’t only because Peter James always writes brilliant Roy Grace stories, but I
must mention that this book got me pacing the room, screaming out in shock,
thumping the book in excitement and dancing about the room like the lunatic I
really am.
The twists and turns will stay with me until I’m old and
senile.
Peter James at his sizzling best. The last chapter--- WOW!
Now I wasn’t expecting that!
The good news is that I’ve got Dead Man’s Time waiting
patiently to be read, which was again conveniently picked up at a charity shop
for a fraction of the cover price.
Having already read the first four chapters, I just know I’m
in store for another roller coaster adventure!
Thanks Peter, as always your fan…
