Review:
"Crime pick of the year. Darker, funnier and more violent than the television adaptation, but just as high quality" * Daily Telegraph * "Inspector Jack Frost (is) deplorable yet funny, a comic monster on the side of the angels" * Guardian * "What impresses me most is the extraordinarily vivid interplay between the police characters. Frost himself is splendidly drawn" * The Times * "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 *
Book Description:
