Dead Man's Time

Description

Detective Superintendent Roy Grace is called to the scene of a brutal burglary where a ninety-eight-year-old woman has been murdered and millions of pounds worth of antiques stolen. This crime, however, is merely the latest ripple in a dark current of revenge that began ninety years prior with a violent act and a disappearance. As Grace delves into the case, he uncovers a decades-spanning narrative of murder and retribution that stretches across two continents and exposes the shadowy underbelly of the antiques world. Peter James masterfully weaves a compelling tale of past sins and present-day consequences, delivering a sleek and absorbing mystery that is both intricate and unputdownable.
