I'm always leery of short stories...especially by authors whose full length novels I really, really like...as in Peter James. So I approached this one with caution. These are a collection of 30 stories all with a thriller/horror theme. Peter James also offers us two stories featuring his Detective Roy Grace who has become a trademark series for James. As with any "collection", each story has a "twist" ending... some predictable and others not so much. I was glad I stuck with this book as I found I really liked more of them than I didn't like. ( ) A Twist of the Knife is a collection of short stories. Some of tbe stories are as short a few pages. I don't really enjoy this type of short story as I feel that there isn't enough to get stuck in to. I did read the first couple then flicked through to read tne Roy Grace ones and the story that inspired the brilliant Dead Simple. It's hard to rate this book because I have read what I want so I haven't technically finished it but do love Peter James as an author. I think 3 or 4 stars for his writing and for just being Peter James but I have to give 1 star because the book wasn't completely read. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse
Combining stories from ebook story collections 'Short Shockers One' and 'Short Shockers Two', and with never-before-seen new material, this is a story collection you won't forget. From a woman intent on revenge, to a restaurant critic with a fear of the number thirteen, and from a story of ghostly terror to the first ever case of his best-loved Detective, Roy Grace, James exposes the Achilles heels of each of his characters, and makes us question how well we can trust ourselves, and each other.
