Winter Frost by R D Wingfield
DI Jack Frost returns once more to solve more mysteries for the village of Denton. Winter in Denton is cold, bleak and a busy time for Detective Inspector Jack Frost whose unsolved crime figures are mounting as he struggles to bring them down in the face of manpower shortages and budget cuts. 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; an armed robbery at a local mini-mart; a ramraid at a jewellers and a series of burglaries. But Frost’s main concern is for the safety of a missing schoolgirl. Nine weeks ago Vicky Stuart, eight years old, didn’t return home from school and in spite of exhaustive enquiries and extensive searches, has never been seen since. Another little girl from the same school is reported missing. Her body is found… raped and strangled. Frost’s prime suspect, strongly protesting his innocence, hangs himself in his cell, leaving a note blaming Frost for driving him to suicide. Subsequent evidence points to the man’s innocence. Coarse, insubordinate and fearless, DI Jack Frost is in serious trouble.“Frost is a splendid creation, a cross between Rumpole and Columbo”
Marcel Berlins, The Times on Night Frost
“Fast paced and wryly amusing, Frost’s latest outing is a delight from start to finish, a unique and unlikely blend of humour and tragedy. More please.”
Val McDermid, Manchester Evening News on Hard Frost
