Michael Harrison thinks he has it all; great career, good friends and a beautiful fiancée. But when his stag night prank goes horribly wrong, Michael finds himself alone and staring death in the face. As time runs out and the terror grows, Detective Superintendent Roy Grace tries to solve his mysterious disappearance, but begins to fear that Michael will never be found in time...

Peter James' wildly popular character, Detective Roy Grace, has returned to the stage for a world premiere and national tour of Dead Simple. Adapted from the bestselling novel of the same name, which is the first book in the Roy Grace series, the play is already gaining rave reviews:

"...packed with twists and turns... a tightly plotted and very dark drama that plays on one of the psyche’s deeper fears." - Maria Chiorando, Kent News (read the full review here)

This production follows last year's critically acclaimed run of The Perfect Murder, adapted from James' novella of the same name and featuring a young Roy Grace.
