Summary:
Fans of Peter James and his Detective Superintendent Roy Grace mysteries know that his books draw on his research into the lives of Brighton and Hove police and are set in a world every bit as gritty as the real thing. His friend
Graham
Bartlett
was a long-serving detective in the city once described as Britain's 'crime capital'. Together, they have written a gripping account of the city's most challenging cases, taking the reader from crime scenes and incident rooms to the morgue, and introducing some of the real-life detectives who inspired Peter James's characters. Whether it's the murder of a dodgy nightclub owner and his family in Sussex's worst non-terrorist mass murder or the race to find the abductor of a young girl, tracking down the antique trade's most notorious 'knocker boys' or nailing an audacious ring of forgers, hunting for a cold-blooded killer who executed a surfer or catching a pair who kidnapped a businessman, leaving him severely beaten to die on a hillside, the authors skilfully evoke the dangerous inside story of policing, the personal toll it takes and the dedication of those who risk their lives to keep the public safe.
