A new but old Frost. If you are a fan of the T.V. then the books will knock your socks off. They are far more funny and dark. R.D. Wingfield must have writen this novel a good while ago and after his death the family decided to publish. Good old Jack Frost smokes everywhere and thats been outlawed in England for a good few years now.
Frost is pitted against Chief Inspector Skinner, who is brought in by Mullett to shove Frost out of the door and out of Mullett's hair. Needless to say, Frost wins the day, with a number of child murders, and assorted other crimes along the way. Full of dark humour and grisly crimes. A tour de force of crime fiction.
Synopsis
The discovery of two young girls' bodies leaves Detective Inspector Jack Frost in a race to hunt down the killer before he, or she, can strike again. At the same time he faces a crisis at Denton police station which could result in him being sacked. Jack Frost, brought to magnificent life by David Jason in the TV series, staggers from crisis to crisis, his bumbling modus operandi disguising his extraordinary powers of detection.
