Praise for DEAD LIKE YOU:
'Roy Grace ... is fast becoming one of the more memorable coppers in modern crime fiction ... A first class police procedural.' -- The Times
'With the action jumping between two time periods, plotting is satisfyingly thorough, dialogue is deceptively casual, and the traumatic effects of rape are made explicit. James is probably the closest we'll get to a British Stephen King.' -- Financial Times
