What makes a good crime story- well for me the body(s) need to have some bearing on the plot not just gory murders etc.The Peter James book also has a sub theme running through the Roy Grace series (still writing more in this series )this sub theme is as addictive as the solving of the murders. He realy breaths life into his characters and I for one cann't wait for the next book.
I didn't like the one that is winning, 'The Surgeon' so I wouldn't want to try reading it again. I thought I would like it because I have been watching the series based on it, Rizzolli and Isles, and I liked that, but as usual the book is not always how you imagined it. Perhaps I should have read the book first and watched the series second.
