Dead Man's Grip by Peter James

Title: Dead Man's Grip
Author: Peter James
Released: September 2011


I WANT THEM TO SUFFER, AND I WANT THEM DEAD ...

Carly Chase is still traumatised after being in a fatal traffic accident which kills a teenage student from Brighton University. Then she receives news that turns her entire world into a living nightmare.

The drivers of the other two vehicles involved have been found tortured and murdered. Now Detective Superintendant Roy Grace of the Sussex Police force issues a stark and urgent warning to Carly: She could be next.

The police advise Carly her only option is to go into hiding and change her identity. The terrified woman disagrees - she knows these people have ways of hunting you down anywhere. If the police are unable to stop them, she has to find a way to do it herself. But already the killer is one step ahead of her, watching, waiting, and ready ...


Rating: 5 Stars


Positives: This was an absolutely amazing and gripping read. From about four chapters in I really couldn't put it down. There is amazing character development and Tooth is such a horrible twisted assassin that he's amazing. I loved his sick and imaginative murders, especially the very last one. I really cannot praise this book highly enough. 


Negatives: If I had to pick something, and that's if I really had to pick something, then I think it would be the character of Carly Chase. I disliked her but I can't quite put my finger on why. 


Would I recommend this book? Yes I already have done to a couple of my friends, and I would recommend this to anyone who wants a thrilling read.
