Grace, Season 4, news

Grace, Season 4, premieres July 2 on BritBox. Detective Roy Grace tackles four dangerous crimes in the new series. Yes, only 4 episodes, but they're all feature length. 

• “Dead Man’s Time“: A massive amount of jewels and valuables is stolen from a mansion in Brighton, leaving the lonely elderly resident close to death. 
• “Want You Dead“: In one of their most unusual cases yet, two victims are found who both died in similarly bizarre circumstances. The post-mortem brings up more questions than answers. 
• “You Are Dead”: A woman vanishes in broad daylight without a trace from an underground car park. Elsewhere, the remains of another young woman are discovered. Is there a connection?
• “Love You Dead“: A known Brighton burglar is found dead in his car, and though his wife claims he had turned over a new leaf, he might have been active the night he was killed.

Grace, based on the gripping Roy Grace novels by Peter James, follows the trials and tribulations of the talented yet haunted Detective Superintendent Roy Grace (John Simm), still reeling from the disappearance of his wife, Sandy, years earlier. 

If you want to catch up on the series, Grace seasons 1-3 is still available on BritBox.

Peter James, author of the Roy Grace novels has a new mystery coming out this July:  THEY THOUGHT I WAS DEAD. I can't wait for this one. Definitely a spin on the series

This new companion to James’ detective Roy Grace series allows Sandy (the much-talked- yet little-heard-from character) speak for herself starting on the day she vanished on her husband's thirtieth birthday. The story follows Sandy as she decides that “I no longer exist” in the eyes of those around her and follows her on her journey to a place where people will believe her dead.

 

GRACE, Season 3 release date

I've been waiting impatiently for Season 3 of Grace, especially after the Season 2 finale cliffhanger. Well the wait it almost over: Grace: Season 3, premieres in the U.S. a week from today-- Thursday, April 20, on BritBox. Roy Grace and his partner Glenn Branson return to solve more cases in Brighton.

The series is adapted from Peter James's Roy Grace series. Eight books have now been translated to the screen. There are 19 books in the series, so hopefully we'll see more TV seasons! 

John Simm stars as DS Roy Grace. As with Season 2, Season 3 consists of three feature-length stories adapted from the novels, all set in and around the seaside city of Brighton in East Sussex.

Peter James' Roy Grace headed to TV

From The Argus:

BESTSELLING crime author Peter James has announced that his popular fictional Brighton detective Roy Grace will be on TV screens next year.

He was speaking at the official launch of his latest Roy Grace book Dead At First Sight, the 15th in the series, at the Palm Court restaurant on Brighton Palace Pier. Guests at the event included fellow crime writer Martina Cole, Brighton and Hove Mayor Dee Simson and Sussex Police and Crime Commissioner Katy Bourne.

Mr James told the hundreds of guests he is “very excited” about the development. He said: “I can’t say too much about it but it’s being written by one of the best crime writers in the TV industry and it’s being produced by an old mate of mine.” Mr James said he was unable even to reveal the name of the TV company.
