Another fabulous crime novel from the creator of A Touch of Frost 'A funny, frantic, utterly refreshing brew' - Sunday Telegraph Detective Inspector Jack Frost, officially on duty, is nevertheless determined to sneak off to a colleague's leaving party. But first the corpse of a well-known local junkie is found blocking the drain of a Denton public lavatory - and then the daughter of a wealthy businessman is reported missing. And now a wave of crime threatens to submerge sleepy Denton. A robbery occurs at the town's notorious strip joint, the pampered son of a local MP is suspected of a hit-and-run offence and, to top it all, a multiple rapist is on the loose. But the manic Frost manages to assure his superior that all is under control. Now he has only to convince himself...
A funny, frantic, utterly refreshing brew * Sunday Telegraph *
What impresses most is the extraordinarily vivid interplay between the police characters. Frost himself is spendidly drawn * The Times *
After a successful career writing for radio, R.D. Wingfield turned his attention to fiction and created the character of D.I. Jack Frost, who has featured in the titles A Touch of Frost, Frost at Christmas, Night Frost, Hard Frost, Winter Frost and A Killing Frost. The series has been adapted for television as the perennially popular A Touch of Frost starring David Jason. R.D. Wingfield died in 2007.
