Description

A chilling event at the Royal Edward Hotel on the night of ACC Vosper's leaving party forces Grace into a difficult position. However, good as the cultural references are [and much as they make me feel like a lumbering luddite], it is the plot, characterisation and depth of research that make this novel – and the series – stand out from the competition.

Roy Grace is the proverbial knight in shining armor who must protect beautiful women. They include his fiancée Cleo Morey and Carly Chase, a divorce lawyer. Carly is a widow whose husband Kes died in an avalanche while skiing. She struggles to raise her twelve-year-old son Tyler with only her mom to help her. From Carly, I learned that a night of heavy drinking can cause a breathalyzer test performed the next morning to indicate that one is still technically drunk. In other words, don’t get into a traffic accident after having been on a drinking binge the previous night. Grace star John Simm wants to adapt all of the Roy Grace books for TV, 24 February 2021".

When businesswoman Katya Bishop is brutally murdered, all the evidence points to her businessman husband, Kit ( Arthur Darvill), especially when his girlfriend is also found dead in a similar manner. The only problem being, Kit has a solid alibi for both murders - so how could he possibly be in two places at once? Meanwhile, Grace becomes friendly with new forensic pathologist, Cleo Moray ( Zoe Tapper), but their relationship gets off to a bumpy start when she becomes the latest target of a hitman following every moment of Grace and his team. Could Kit Bishop be connected? And if so, will Grace manage to stop him before he commits any further crimes? The other character that greatly fascinated me was Tooth, a very professional, military trained hit man who lives in the Caribbean. He has an ugly dog, Yossarian, that chews off the fingers of intruders. Tooth is best described as a small, wiry man who is surprisingly strong, fierce and agile, like a mongoose. He’s also wily like a coyote, able to outsmart the police, always keeping one step ahead of them. Worst of all, he likes to videotape his victims while they are slowly dying in gruesome manners that may offend some readers. The series, based on the bestselling novels by novelist Peter James, [2] was adapted by acclaimed screenwriter Russell Lewis, with a pair of films, comprising the novels Dead Simple and Looking Good Dead, filmed in 2020 for broadcast in 2021. [3] Dead Simple, broadcast in March 2021, attracted an estimated 7.2m viewers, which made it the fifth-most-watched programme for the week of 8–14 March, according to BARB. [4] The discovery of skeletal remains in a Brighton storm drain and a young girl being hunted by an armed hitman appear to be unconnected, until the two cases unexpectedly collide in the most unimaginable way. Meanwhile, a former colleague of Grace's from the Met, Cassian Pewe ( James D'Arcy) has been sent down to assist the team, and immediately sets about re-opening the investigation into the disappearance of Grace's wife. As the two come to loggerheads, it soon becomes a battle of wills as old enemies must unite to save Abby Morton (Katie Clarkson-Hill) and her elderly mother from those desperate to recover a sheet of priceless stamps.
