Product Information

For years, Harry and Freya dreamed of finding a valuable hidden treasure at a car boot sale. They didn't think it likely, of course, but they could hope.

In the UK, the first two seasons aired on ITV. In the US, they found a home on BritBox. As of mid-2022, we know that a third season has been commissioned, with a likely (though unconfirmed) air date in early 2023.Harry and Freya, an ordinary couple, dreamed for years of finding something priceless buried amongst the tat in a car boot sale.

Michael’s desperate and attractive fiancée, Ashley Harper, seeks Superintendent Roy Grace for his help, hoping to find her husband-to-be before the wedding in three days. In the aftermath of 9/11, a failed Brighton businessman sees an opportunity to shed his debts, disappear, and reinvent himself in another country.

With the help of the police, she's able to remove him from her life – but he's obsessed and determined to destroy her and everything she ever loved. James explained that, in his experience, a majority of policemen and policewomen enjoy their work, even though they have to work insane hours, deal with the bureaucracy, and face horrible tragedies, as well as the internal politics of the system. But he also explains that those experiences are the reason that police workers look at the world differently than everyone else.

Dead Man’s Time calls Roy Grace in once more. This time it’s for a burglary that has taken over a million pounds worth of loot. It has also left an elderly man who lives there dying. As Grace shows up on the scene, it’s clear that the family does not care so much about the valuables so much as one valuable in particular. They will do anything to get it. They don’t care about breaking the law and Grace is thrown into a hot pursuit that takes him through Europe and eventually all the way to New York. Desperate to escape a bad marriage, Lorna Belling falls for another man she hopes will rescue her. Unfortunately, things don't work out according to plan. When a woman's body is found in a Brighton bath, DS Roy Grace is called to the scene. Though it initially seems pretty straightforward, a sudden turn of events reveals the case to be much more sinister and complicated than he could have imagined. Immortal Hulk is Ewing’s best work, and Immortal Hulk #25 is a cosmic sci-fi/horror hybrid that takes readers to a future iteration of the Marvel Universe where Hulk has inherited the mantle of Galactus as the “Breaker of Worlds,” a monster that literally punches through planets. Featuring stunning artwork from Germán García and Chris O’Halloran, this issue gives readers a taste of the terror in store for Georges Malik and crew if they do find a living god.

DS Roy Grace is sure Brian Bishop murdered his socialite wife. The only problem? He was sixty miles away, asleep in bed at the time of the murder. Has someone stolen Bishop's identity, or is he just a very clever killer? Peter James's Roy Grace mystery series was recently adapted for television by Endeavour writer Russell Lewis. Now, many are discovering the series for the first time – or starting all over and reading it anew with actual characters in mind.

His research on the Grace novels, he claims, has given him insight into the daily life of a detective. What are the Roy Grace books all about?

But when she is selected for the trial of a major Brighton drugs overlord, everything changes.This explanation gives a very helpful insight into the mind of Detective Superintendent Roy Grace, a new kind of detective who is going through turmoil in his own life, as well as trying to prevent it from happening in the lives of others. If you like courtroom dramas, then Find Them Dead may work better for you than it did for me. But while I enjoyed appearances from familiar faces such as acting DI Norman Potting – a character who James has skilfully turned from a figure of fun into an impressive operator – I wanted more of what the author excels at. And that’s rigorous police procedurals. Set in the year 2367, Boom!

They’ve proven that they can bring excitement, drama, and fun to corporate IP, and their new series gives them the opportunity to push even further without editorial restrictions.
