Product Description:
DI Jack Frost is called back from his holiday to investigate the death of a child! Jack Forst was supposed to be on holiday, but with one child dead and another reported missing, there was no chance, no matter how much it pained Chief Superintendent Mullett to recall his scruffiest, must irreverent officer to duty. Had the same person taken both boys? Was there any connection with the pervert who silently entered houses at night to stab babies in their cots? Questions, questions and more questions. And so very few answers! David Jason, who plays D I Jack Frost in the TV adaptation, brings R D Wingfield's characters to vivid life in this compelling audio tape.

Rating:  - Great police procedural
if you like british police procedurals, this is for you. I am sorry that there are not more books about Frost. My only reservation about this is that it involves kidnapping and mistreatment of children. Some parts were hard to read because of that.
Rating:  - Frost turns up the heat

Rating: - Frost keeps up the good work
People who did not enjoy any of the previous stories about Jack Frost probably won't like this one either. For the rest of us, it's a continuation of one of the best detective-story-series ever. Superintendent Mullett is as much of a pig as ever (boy I am glad he's not my boss!!) and Frost also gets himself a new archnemesis. Like in the previous books, there's a lot going on at the same time. The main crime is the kidnapping of a young boy.
