Ending his secondment to London’s Met Police, Roy Grace gets a tip-off about a county lines drugs mastermind operating out of Brighton. On his first day back in his old job in Sussex, he is called to a seemingly senseless murder. Separately, Meg Magellan finally has her life back together, five years after the car crash that killed her husband and their son. Her daughter, Laura, now 18, is on her gap year travelling in South America with a friend, and Meg misses her badly. Laura is all she has in the world....

Somewhat disappointing.
Revisado: 12-14-24
I started with Dead At First Sight, the previous book in the series, since I am a big fan of the Grace television series on BritBox. I really enjoyed Dead At First Sight and was eager to listen to this one, but unfortunately, it fell somewhat flat. The book might as well have been called a Meg Magellan book because Grace almost came off as a minor character in his book. Probably 2/3 of the book focuses on Meg and her role as a juror in the drug case, while Roy is relegated to mainly dealing with Cassian Pewe and family issues. The build-up was good, but the ending was very abrupt with conclusions seemingly cobbled together at the last moment. I am going to continue with the series, but I hope that it goes back to being about Grace doing the work and solving a case.

Across the Atlantic, a retired NYPD cop waits in a bar in Florida’s Key West for his first date with the lady who is, without question, his soulmate.

Excellent listen!

I've been a fan of the Grace series on BritBox, so I decided to give the books a shot and see what they were like. I started with a later title, and I wasn't disappointed. The narration and storyline are excellent, with the details of these romance scams infuriating and sad simultaneously. I love the way the narrator does Cassian Pewe, as the character is somewhat of a weasel and he makes him sound that way. Highly recommended.

You've lost your daughter. She's addicted to drugs and to an abusive boyfriend. And she's made it clear that she doesn't want to be found. Then, by chance, you see her playing guitar in Central Park. But she's not the girl you remember. This woman is living on the edge, frightened, and clearly in trouble. You don't stop to think. You approach her, beg her to come home. She runs.

Great twist though story is a tad convoluted

First of all, Steven Weber could do a Masterclass on how to do audiobooks. I’ve marked several books to get just because he’s the narrator.
The book is really good, and while you always have to suspend disbelief when it comes to fiction, some of it sometimes seemed a bit too far fetched. But that’s a minor quibble. Coben’s strength is his ability to take everyday people and put them in the most extraordinary of circumstances and makes it seem easy. Definitely worth the time.
