Winter Frost

(DI Jack Frost Book 5)

‘Possibly the most accurate picture of police work in crime fiction today… An absolute cracker’ – Mike Ripley

Denton is having more than its fair share of crime.

A serial killer is murdering local prostitutes; a man demolishing his garden shed uncovers a long-buried skeleton; there is an armed robbery at a local minimart and a ram raid at a jewellers.

But Detective Inspector Jack Frost's main concern is for the safety of a missing eight-year-old. And soon after another girl is reported missing, her body is found . . . raped and strangled.

Then Frost's prime suspect hangs himself in his cell, leaving a note blaming Frost for driving him to suicide.

Frost may be coarse, insubordinate and fearless. But he’s also in serious trouble.

About the series

Crumpled, slapdash and foul-mouthed as ever, Detective Inspector Jack Frost struggles to cope with inadequate back-up and never enough time; the unsolved crimes pile up and the vicious killings go on. Frost must cut corners and take risks as he staggers from crisis to crisis, rapists to murderers, missing bodies to discovered body parts; will he be able to keep Denton safe?
Frost is a splendid creation, a cross between Rumpole and Colombo
