Picture You Dead – Peter James

Harry and Freya Kipling think they've struck gold at a car boot sale — a painting that could be a long-lost masterpiece. But their discovery plunges them into the dark world of art forgery, greed, and murder.

Detective Superintendent Roy Grace is called in to investigate, uncovering a trail that leads to ruthless collectors and deadly secrets. Fast-paced, addictive, and rich with art-world intrigue — Peter James keeps the Roy Grace series as gripping as ever with book 18.

Perfect for fans of long-running crime detective series, art-world mysteries, and the relentless-detective trope. Readers of Jeffrey Deaver's The Bone Collector and Alex Michaelides' The Silent Patient will love this.

Rated 4.2/5 on Goodreads from 6,000+ ratings — "Fast-paced and addictive — James keeps the Roy Grace series fresh."
