About this ebook
An obsessive psychopath must be stopped whilst Detective Superintendent Roy Grace also deals with a very personal mystery in Want You Dead, by award winning crime writer Peter James.
Grace’s wife Sandy is officially declared dead after being missing for a decade, allowing him to marry the mother of his baby son. But Sandy’s disappearance is unexplained for a reason.
Bryce Laurent doesn’t want his ex-girlfriend to move on. Terrified by Bryce’s dark side, she seeks police protection. But Bryce will not be stopped, determined to destroy everything and everyone she has ever known and loved – and then her too . . .
Although the Roy Grace novels can be read in any order, Want You Dead is the tenth thrilling title in the bestselling series. Enjoy more of the Brighton detective’s investigations with You Are Dead and Love You Dead.

Another exiting page turner. I've read all the Roy Grace books up to this one and become familiar with all the characters. I don't want to spoil it but I was almost in tears halfway through this. On to the next one now. *****

Another exciting triller with Roy Grace. With another cliff hanger ending regarding ex wife Sandy. I would have liked to know how he was listening in to Red. Was it the bracelet? It never came off and he could hear her everywhere. Is this story to be continued? If so I hope Red clues up a bit and agrees not to stay home alone. Even in an unsafe safe room. That was a bit odd. Reinforced unlockable doors but they dont check the ceiling?? Apart from that I loved it. Want the next one asap.

Gripped by first half, but interest tailed off 3/4 way through
