Summary
Detective Superintendent Roy Grace exposes the dark side of internet dating in the intriguing crime novel Dead at First Sight, by award winning author Peter James.
A man waits at a London airport for the love of his life to arrive. Across the Atlantic, a retired cop waits in a bar in Florida’s Key West for his first date with the lady who is his soulmate. The two men are about to discover they’ve been scammed out of almost every penny they have in the world – and that neither women exist.
In the same week, Roy Grace is called to investigate the suicide of a woman in Brighton, that is clearly not what it seems. As his investigations continue, a handsome motivational speaker comes forward. He’s discovered his identity is being used to scam eleven different women online. The first he knew of it was a phone call from one of them saying, ‘You don’t know me, but I thought I knew you’.
That woman is now dead.
Roy Grace realizes he is looking at the tip of an iceberg. Can he bring down the murderous global empire built on clever, cruel internet scams?
Although the Roy Grace novels can be read in any order, Dead at First Sight is the fifteenth title in the bestselling series. Discover more of the Brighton detective’s investigations with Find Them Dead and Left You Dead.
Now a major ITV series, Grace, starring John Simm.

Another Great Roy Grace
One of the best Roy Grace books yet. My only small criticism is that the details of the Romance Fraud was overdone in the first third of the book.

Complex, slightly contrived but compelling
A couple of times I’ve felt the Roy Grace series was running out of steam. Slightly formulaic but with this addition, even though belief has to be suspended a couple of times, there’s a genuinely compelling insight into the perils of online contact and dating.
This investigation sees the return of a former adversary. He’s on top form and adds an interesting dimension to the plot. Grace is struggling with his boss and is tempted by an offer from a former colleague. Loads more doors opening to take the series down a slightly different path...
Enjoyed this outing and now I want to know what Grace will do next.

Narrator is excellent.
The storyline had my attention from the very beginning to the last word. Narrator's interpretation and performance of each character was perfect.

Dead At First Sight
Another slice of Detective Superintendent Roy Grace and his colleagues in Sussex's Major Crime directorate. This time he's investigating a huge worldwide romance fraud ring.
Punchy and brilliant. The narrator was top notch too.
