Dead If You Don’t

In his deadliest case yet, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace faces a complex kidnapping in Dead If You Don’t, by award winning crime writer Peter James.

Kipp Brown, successful businessman and compulsive gambler, is on his worst run of luck yet. Taking his teenage son, Mungo, to a football match should have given him a welcome respite if only for a few hours. But its at the stadium where his nightmare begins.

Within minutes of arriving at the game, Mungo suddenly disappears and Kipp receives a terrifying message: someone has his child. And, to get him back alive, Kipp will have to pay.

Roy Grace is brought in to investigate what seems to be a straightforward case of kidnapping. But, very soon, Grace finds himself entering a dark, criminal underbelly of the city, where the rules are different and nothing is what it seems . . .
