Publisher's Summary:
The body of a teenager dredged from the seabed off the coast of Sussex is found to be missing its vital organs. Soon two more young bodies are found.
Caitlin Beckett, a 15-year-old in Brighton, will die if she does not receive an urgent liver transplant. When the health system threatens to let her down, Lynn, her mother, turns in panic to the internet and discovers a broker who can provide her with a black-market organ - but at a price.
As Superintendent Roy Grace investigates the recovered bodies, he unearths the trail of a gang of child traffickers operating from Eastern Europe. Soon Grace and his team will find themselves in a race against time to save the life of a young street kid, while a desperate mother will stop at nothing to save her daughter's life.
Members Reviews:
I'm skipping the rest of this book and moving on to Roy Grace #6
I've read the Roy Grace series in order so far and this one never captured my attention. I actually find the entire subject matter to be repulsive and I couldn't set aside my disgust to even finish the book.
I like Peter James and I like the Roy Grace series. I will continue with book 6. But this is one that I just don't recommend unless you're interested in the topics of organ trafficking and homelessness.
Another Peter James Masterpiece
I've been going back to the beginning of Peter James' Detective Roy Grace series of books. After reading the first one I just couldn't stop. I'm reading them in order and each one is more fascinating than the last. "Dead Tomorrow" was another stellar page turner that I couldn't put down. As a result I have quickly picked up the next one in the series, "Dead Like You."
Absolute Excellence
One of the aspects of writing crime fiction that is obviously very important to Peter James, indeed one of the issues that he emphasised in panel sessions and during an in depth interview at CrimeFest 2011, is the depth and accuracy of his research. This is borne out in his novels.
DEAD TOMORROW shows James is an authority not only on British police procedures but also on the several topics that the novel touches on. Minute details add authority to his writing, to the point where the reader thinks "I am learning something important here."
James uses all this background detail to create another world for us to temporarily to become part of: one where we get to know a complement of characters to the point where we actually care what happens to them.
DEAD TOMORROW is #5 in Peter James' Roy Grace series set in Brighton. (#7 has just been published). Grace's wife Sandy disappeared nearly 10 years ago and until now Grace has wanted to believe she is still alive. Her has searched assiduously and even consulted seances. There has been a supposed sighting in Germany but his search has continued throughout the series. But now he has a new love in his life, Cleo, and he wants to move on.
I'd like to comment too on a couple of characteristics of James' writing that i find both unusual and well done.
The author often reveals that he has fore-knowledge of future events that will embroil a character.
