The first novel in the Roy Grace series and centers around Michael Harrison, who goes missing on his stag night, just days before his wedding. The only clue is that he was last seen buried alive in a prank gone wrong.  A fast-moving mystery thriller with loads and loads of twists and turns.  Masterfully written by James. A must read.

A thoroughly enjoyable police procedural page turner, marked down a star due to its frantic approach to reach the finish line and tie all of the loose ends together.
