About this product

Product Information

The tantalizing prequel to the detective novels of the late R. D. Wingfield featuring Detective Jack Frost--in the vein of Jill Paton Walsh's 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 England's longest running series of all time, and the gruff, non-conformist cop Jack Frost is as much a part of England's detective tradition as P.D. James's Adam Dalgleish or Colin Dexter's Inspector Morse. Now, by special arrangement with R.D. Wingfield's estate, this smashing new mystery has been written to give new life to this beloved policeman. In James Henry's 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.

New Frost is great.
James Henry (a composite author's name for James Gurbutt and Harvey Sutton) who with the blessings of the son of the now deceased R.D, WWingfield (author of Frost at Christmas, A touch of Frost, Night Frost, Hard Frost and Winter Frost)takes over the writing of another Frost story. This one is a prequel to the Wingfield books and brings us Frost's first detective story. Excellently written, James Henry gets the Wingfield Frost just right. If you are a Frost fan, then this one is up your alley --because James Henry writes just like Wingfield.
