The book is the latest in the series featuring Superintendent Roy Grace but is centred around a jury member, Meg who gets elected Foreman. It wasn't a challenging read but it was enjoyable.Īpart from the first couple of chapters, this crime/mystery is set in a courtroom. I think anyone who enjoys a thriller or detective story will like this. It made a nice balance between the two parallel storylines. I liked the fact that the story revolved more around Sarah and her experience, as opposed to the detective being the centre of the story. I especially enjoy the "baddies" in this, you could feel the evil coming across and it actually gave me chills. The story is quite complex and all the different elements come together really well. Meanwhile, Roy Grace is investigating a murder which is linked to the court case, but will he be able to put two and two together and solve the case before it's too late?
Her daughter is away travelling, and he will have someone kill her if Sarah doesn't find a way to turn the jury in his favour. In order to save himself, he threatens one of the jurors in particular - Sarah. Peter James needs no introduction, and if you've ever read one of his books, particularly one of his Roy Grace detective novels, then you know exactly what to expect here.Ī big time drug dealer is arrested and goes to trial.
