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 currently having more than its fair share of crime. 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.

I got interested in reading the "Frost" detective series after viewing the British television series based on these books. The television series was wonderful and prompted me to read the books from R.D.Wingfield which were the basis for the series. Winter Frost is just one of the series that I purchased and it did not disappoint! I found the character studies even better than the television program, which is not unusual, but it wasn't boring or slow paced. The stories are gritty and very real. The character of Detective Jack Frost is like a British Columbo. A scruffy character but exceptional at his job, aside from his paperwork which is always a mess and turned in late. His wisecracks about his fussy boss have you laughing and really make you like Frost. If anything bad happened to you, you'd want Jack Frost on the case! If you like British Detective/mysteries, you'll love Winter Frost. I highly recommend it!
