Summary

August, 1983. Denton is preparing for a wedding. DS Waters should be on top of the world with less than a week to go until he marries Kim Myles. But the Sunday before the big day, the body of a young woman is found in the churchyard, and their wedding venue becomes a crime scene.

DS Jack Frost has been homeless for the past three months. He's been staying with DC Sue Clarke but with a baby to take care of and the imminent arrival of her mother, she's given him his marching orders. But as best man to Waters, he's got a responsibility to solve the mystery of the dead girl in the churchyard.

Absolutely BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm a huge fan of Inspector Frost - both in book form and more recently, Audible. I had my doubts about using a credit for this book, after reading a previous reviewer saying this is 'the worst of the Frost Books'. I am so pleased I ignored that review. I actually feel this is one of the very best. I loved all the characters, as usual, and the narrator's accents were brilliant as they always are. I highly recommend this title as I thoroughly enjoyed every word.

As Good as the Original

I was so pleased to find that there are more Frost books and I enjoyed this book immensely. The plot is good, it is well read and well paced.

good old Jack.

Having listened to David Jason reading, this was strange but became gripped in the story.

Character voices

Sergeant Walters accent traveled around a bit sort of West Indian , more welsh than anything else. The doctor was similarly affected. That said it wasn’t a bad story.

Enjoyable listen

Loving these Frost stories by James Henry. He's certainly got the essence of Frost, the original creation of R D Wingfield off to a tee.

Good narration by Stephen Thorne.

Great book but what’s with the accents?

I love all the frost books but what on earth has happened to DS Waters. Since the last book he seems to have e changed form a London accent to some sort of weird West Indian one. To be honest i found it a bit off putting as it removes the continuity from previous books. Apart from that, great storyline though

very poor story

It was rubbish, not good enough to give it any stars apart from the reader who is very good
