First Frost: A Mystery (DS Jack Frost Investigation)

First Frost: A Mystery (DS Jack Frost Investigation) by Henry, James. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9781250025531.

The tantalizing prequel to the detective novels of the late R. D. Wingfield featuring Detective Jack Frost―in the vein of Jill Paton Walshs reinvention of the works of Dorothy L. Sayers "Brilliant! A must for all fans of Frost, but also so much more. Gripping, finely written . . . A classic, period crime thriller." Thus raves Peter James about A Touch of Frost, a prequel to the detective novels of R.D. Wingfield, who died in 2007. In the tradition of Midsomer Murders, A Touch of Frost is one of Englands longest running series of all time, and the gruff, non-conformist cop Jack Frost is as much a part of Englands detective tradition as P.D. Jamess Adam Dalgleish or Colin Dexters Inspector Morse. Now, by special arrangement with R.D. Wingfields estate, this smashing new mystery has been written to give new life to this beloved policeman. In James Henrys First Frost, Detective Sergeant Jack Frost is dealing with the disappearance of his mentor. When a twelve-year-old girl goes missing from a department store changing room, Frost is put in charge of the case. Perfect for fans who have devoured A Touch of Frost on Netflix Instant as well as for those who love police procedurals, readers everywhere will applaud the return of detective Jack Frost in this pitch-perfect mystery.
