‘Peter James is one of the best British crime writers, and therefore one of the best in the world’ – Lee Child, author of the Jack Reacher series Discover the darkness that lurks around every corner in the latest instalment of the award-winning Grace books, now a major ITV series. A ruthless crime. A race against time. When a young farmer confronts intruders in the middle of the night, he has no idea that just minutes later he will be left dying in a pool of blood. What’s more chilling is what the perpetrators were willing to kill for. ­ At the scene of the crime, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace soon realizes this is no isolated robbery gone wrong, but the tip of the iceberg of a nationwide crime wave in which ruthless organized gangs are making more money from the illegal trade in dogs than they do from drugs. It’s a trade that pits him against some ruthless people who will kill anyone who gets in their way – because where there is greed, there is murder. ‘The master of the craft’ – Daily Express
