Not his best book that I have read yet but still good. I did have to put it down and stop reading it for about two weeks and then came back to it and enjoyed it even more when I came back to it. I have two of his other books to read but these are in paperback. Goodreads helps you keep track of books you want to read. Good plot but if it had been an audiobook it would have been read in a monotone.
After interviewing a friend of Heather on his blog he was found murdered. Wrong Way Home is the fourth instalment in the DI Grace Fisher series, a wee detail I didn’t actually know when I signed up for the blog tour. So once again, I find myself breaking my own rule of never starting a series anywhere else but with book one.

There is no 'highlight', as the whole book has the same intriguing gripping feel. Reads well as a stand alone but must admit to buying the other three in the series when I finished this. At its heart, however, the novel is a very good read with a strong plot.
He was following the ol' hippie trail from the '60s. His experiences range from delightful to frustrating. Eight months, and 25 countries later, he finally reaches home, Sydney.

Overall this was highly readable as ever and a really really great story told wonderfully well. What I love most about these is the beautiful plotting that keeps things unexpected, the exploration of relationships and the wonderfully immersive settings. The popular podcast theme is back here too and very well done, as one character, Freddie, tries to make a name for himself. I loved Grace, she's one kick ass female detective who's intuition and gut instinct is ballsy and fierce. DI Grace Fisher has set her sights on catching a rapist/murderer of a cold case from 25years ago.
If you are looking for a book that combines travel writing with dry humor, than look no further than the work of this Aussie backpacker. I came across his name while traveling myself - I asked one of my fellow travelers if she could recommend a funny travel writer, and she suggested Moore. In this book the author sets off from London at some point in the late 1990s, determined to get home to Sydney by an overland route and without getting on a plane.
The Wrong Way Home
To see what your friends thought of this book,please sign up. Two people were ejected from a tanker truck carrying 1,300 gallons of cooking oil in Southwest Florida. The duo miraculously survived the crash after not wearing seatbelts. To find something or somewhere else that captivates me enough to stay. I'm going to travel the world while making money online.
He has an interest in checking out the old hippie trail as well. Most travel writers inform us about the culture, history, cuisine, and people of distant lands as they move across a landscape, getting into adventures, meeting locals, and sharing their knowledge and perceptions. This is a stunning addition to Isabelle Grey's Essex based DI Grace Fisher series. Grace has no idea that this case will open a real can of worms, as the past refuses to stay buried with a number of present day murders, bringing with it grave dangers. The narrative gives the perspectives of Grace, Freddie and Ivo.

I'll spend a lot of time in cheaper places to leverage the currency and save money, and I'll fill my heart with whatever it desires. The book was reviewed by Robert L. Boyd, Ph.D. in Social Science Quarterly. It was reviewed in the Journal for the Scientific Study of Religion, by Larry J. Halford, in the Library Journal, by Lucy Patrick. The calling is to see the castle built by Babak Khorramdin and the dam and the two bridges built centuries ago nearby. Meeting real people in Iran is foremost in my heart.
She and her team work incredibly well together on the whole though, complimenting each other and all the while talking things through. The investigation wasn’t at all as straightforward as I thought it would be when I first started reading. Many times, I was convinced I had the whole thing figured out, only to be proven wrong. Living about an hour and a half away from where this book is sited ad the fact my partner was born there, made it a lot more interesting for me. Set in Southend and the local area, it tells of a cold case that is re-opened by detective Inspector Grace Fisher.
I was glad to read about cynical ex Fleet Street hack Ivo who still feels he has atone for his sins. I was most intrigued about by blogger Freddie who I think may of had a dark side himself. THE WRONG WAY HOME is the hilarious account of this life-enhancing Grand Tour by means of bone-rattling bus rides, furnace-like trains and exorbitantly-priced taxis. He describes the places - and the people he encountered there - with a mixture of awe, irreverence and self-deprecation. As you can see there is a fantastic range of objects to place - the only thing missing is a police officer to chase you whilst racing!
What struck me the most though, is how Isabelle Grey never loses track of the victims in all of this. How events have affected them, how they’re dealing with things. It added an extra layer you don’t always find in this genre, which I found just as absorbing as the actual investigation. This is part of a series about Grace Fisher and, as often happens, I came into book 4 without having read the previous ones. This book can easily be read as a stand- alone.
It brought back memories of back packing in China in 1990. You made me remember the frustration of trying to arrange anything there in those days. Days there were either very hard or very rewarding. It is bringing back a lot of great memories of a trip I did in the 1998 in the other direction, from India to Jersey by Enfield motorcycle. Just finished ‘The Wrong Way Home’ – 20 years late, I know – but I loved it.
As a stand alone novel therefore it was frustrating. There were also some lose ends which I would like to have seen concluded. Isabelle Grey is an author I’ve heard lots about but have never read, though why I have no idea!
