Dead Like You by Peter James

The Metropole Hotel, Brighton: after a heady New Year's Eve ball, a woman is brutally raped as she returns to her room. A week later, another woman is attacked. Both victims' shoes are taken by the offender. DS Roy Grace soon realizes that these new cases bear remarkable similarities to an unsolved series of crimes back in 1997. The perpetrator was dubbed Shoe Man and was believed to have raped five women before murdering his sixth victim and vanishing. Could this be a copycat, or has Shoe Man resurfaced? Soon Grace and his team will find themselves in a desperate race against the clock to identify and save the life of the new sixth victim.

Peter James was educated at Charterhouse and then at film school. He lived in North America for a number of years working as a screen writer and film producer (his projects included the award winning Dead of the Night) before returning to England. His previous novels, including the number one bestseller Possession, have been translated into twenty-six languages. All his novels reflect his deep interest in medicine, science and the paranormal. He has recently produced several films, including The Merchant of Venice, starring Al Pacino, Jeremy Irons, and Joseph Fiennes and The Bridge of San Luis Rey, starring Robert DeNiro, Kathy Bates and Harvey Keitel. He also co-created the hit Channel 4 series Bedsitcom, which was nominated for a Rose d'Or. Peter James divides his time between his home in Notting Hill in London and Sussex.
