About this listen

Perfect People is a compelling and thought-provoking thriller from bestselling Peter James.

John and Naomi are grieving the death of their four-year-old son from a rare genetic disorder. They desperately want another child, but they realize the odds of their next child contracting the same disease are high.

Then they hear about geneticist Dr Leo Dettore. He has methods that can spare them the heartache of ever losing another child to any disease.

At his clinic is where their nightmare begins.

They should have realized something was wrong when they saw the list. Choices of eye colour, hair, sporting abilities. They can literally design their child. Now it's too late to turn back. Naomi is pregnant and already something is badly wrong . . .

I am a big Peter James fan so bought this and was interested as it looked diffrent from his Roy Grace books. Like the previous review I too found the narrator slighly irritating but because I was gripped and intruiged by the story I stuck with it! I am so glad I did as I thorougly enjoyed it and was hooked to the end. A really great story with a gentle warning about science messing with nature, there is always a price to pay!

Stick with it!

Love the books written by Peter James and although this one is a complete change in direction it was a great book and very well read. I just listened and listened without being able to take a break from it!

Now waiting for the next offering so hurry up Mr James!!

Another great Peter James book!

Fantastic book even with the unconvincing male impersonations of the narrator, if you can get over this then you are in for a treat. Completely different from the normal Peter James books with an ending that really makes you question if advances in science are ever going to take over mother nature. Best book I have listened to in a long time.
