Tiende bind i den populære krimiserie med Roy Grace. Om stor forelskelse og farlig besættelse. Om enhver kvindes værste mareridt. "Rødhåret alenepige på 29. Er du gnisten, der kan fyre op under mit slumrende, ulmende sexliv? Jeg er til sjov, venskab og måske - hvem ved - endnu mere?" Da Red Westwood møder den flotte og rige Bryce Laurent gennem et online-datingbureau, falder hun straks pladask for ham. Men efterhånden som forholdet udvikler sig, opdager hun, at han har en mørk side, der har været gemt under den charmerende facade.

Ved et brutalt røveri i Brighton bliver en gammel kvinde myrdet, og der forsvinder antikviteter til en værdi af 10 millioner pund. Til kriminalkommissær Roy Graces store overraskelse er de pårørende dog kun optaget af at få et gammelt lommeur tilbage. Det er de til gengæld også villige til at gøre hvad som helst for at få tilbage i familiens eje. Efterforskningen fører Roy Grace fra Brightons luskede antikvitetsforretninger til et forbrydernetværk på det europæiske fastland og videre til et bandeopgør i 1920'ernes New York.

Ottende bind i den populære krimiserie med kriminalkommissær Roy Grace, der har solgt i alt 13 millioner eksemplarer på verdensplan. Det er ikke nok for megastjernen Gaia at være verdens største popstjerne. Nu vil hun også anerkendes som skuespiller, og hun har derfor sagt ja til at medvirke i en film om den britiske konge George IV og dennes elskerinde Maria Fitzherbert. Filmoptagelserne skal finde sted i Brighton på den engelske sydkyst og on location i det usædvanlige bygningsværk Royal Pavilion.

Det er nytår, og mens resten af Brighton fester, bliver en kvinde udsat for en grov voldtægt på et værelse på byens fine hotel Metropole. En uge senere bliver en anden kvinde i byen overfaldet, og noget kunne tyde på, at der er tale om samme gerningsmand - en mand med hang til dyre damesko. Kriminalkommissær Roy Grace ser straks, at den nye sag minder om sagen om Skomanden, der i 1997 begik en række voldtægter i Brighton og omegn. Kan det virkelig være den samme gerningsmand, der efter så mange år er vendt tilbage, eller er der tale om en copycat?

Linus Bailey's tenth birthday, if measured on some kind of “So how did it go then?” scale, would score a one. Maybe a bit less. It started well, but then things went very badly indeed. Linus' problem is that he makes things up. His mother, for instance, was found living as a head hunter in the Jungles of Borneo. His dad, a man called Nigel who Linus hasn't seen since he was two, is a Ninja Warrior currently living in Japan. His dad fights crime and saves people. Linus' Headmaster is evil and his jumper was knitted by slaves. Linus Bailey's childhood is my childhood—a childhood where, ...
