Wish You Were Dead: Quick Reads

Product Information

Join DSI Roy Grace and Cleo Morley as they take their first family holiday together and a well earned break from their crime solving exploits. Im Nachhinein ist es wirklich ein ziemliches gutes Buch. Es hatte keine Längen. Das Ende war zwar schon etwas abrupt, aber das machte jetzt auch nichts aus.

rowan, he is literally amazing. we love that he is honestly so protective of her, the way he was so so loving but morally grey??? yk i ate that up. he also has a way with words, making words literally sound poetic when he was showing his true emotions. I don't want to give too much away so I'll just say this is a wonderful creepy thriller filled with suspense and nail biting moments. A fun who-dun-it! Jane was a strong female lead who went through a very difficult traumatic thing (don’t wanna spoil it) that caused her to go silent with fear, her muteness was a different twist to the story and I loved seeing her grow stronger and stronger, day by day, The cover of Wish You Were Dead is absolutely appropriate. The book was creepy, disturbing, yet alluring: after reading a little bit I didn't want to put the book down until I had finished the entire thing. Its main strong point was the kidnapping/serial killer plot line, which was the sole factor that kept me interested through the duration of the novel.

The thrilling Roy Grace series returns to Worthing.

A truly brilliant story…incredibly entertaining and truly kept us on the edge of our seat…‘perfect for anyone who enjoys a crime drama!’ Roy Grace is also different in that he will use anything and everything available to him to solve a case. He will use basics like pathology analysis and forensics, to mediums as far off the beaten path as the paranormal, getting input from mediums and clairvoyants about his work. Grace has his own belief system in ghosts and things that go bump in the night, and he brings that into his cases. i loved jane, she was honestly so sweet but she had that fire in her which i really related to, she has been through something which made her mute at her own accord, but she has proven time and time again how strong she is. The characters were stereotypical to be honest - they are the rich, young kids who are living in private school and its set in a typical YA manner - a high school. It's all right though, as Tyler offered a breath of fresh air as well as Sharon and Laurie. Not many books delve in the topic of homosexuality too.James has also served two terms as Chair of the UK Crime Writers Association, and is also a board member of International Thriller Writers in the United States. What’s next for Roy Grace? 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. Michael Holt’s two-level set – complete with a suit of armour that was quite the topic of conversation in the interval – was very reminiscent of an Agatha Christie style setting and Director Jonathan O’Boyle used it very well. Max Pappenheim’s sound and lighting worked well to give the chateau a suitable look but one thing I didn’t understand was why he included atmospheric music at various points, particularly in the second act. In a film or TV programme, incidental music added to the atmosphere and emotion works, but I’m really not sure it does in a theatre, and personally, I found it rather distracting. I will praise the baby though. I’ve no real idea how it was done, but whenever the child was making sounds – gurgling, crying, laughing you know the sort of thing – the noise came from the baby really making the child seem more real than it might have been.

Things get weirder and weirder- the anonymous blogster names names and then, poof, they're gone. Eventually, she gets scared that she's cursed- clearly someone is reading what she writes and acting on it. In the mean time, Madison is seeing people who she has been close to her whole life disappear and desperately trying to make the connection to who could be responsible. Worse than anything, she fears that her new man of interest who just moved into town mysteriously could be involved in some way. Not to mention she's been getting weird anonymous notes on the computer, and now she's finding messages left for her warning her that it's not safe. Clearly someone she knows is involved in this, but who?

Cast

The Thrillogy by Todd Strasser is a trilogy of standalones, which means you can read whichever story seems to pique your interest, even if it's not the first one. But I highly recommend you read all three of them because these books are amazeballs.
