About this listen

Winter in Denton is a busy time for DI Jack Frost, whose unsolved crime figures are mounting. A serial killer is murdering local prostitutes; armed robbery; a ram raid at a jewellers and a buried skeleton is uncovered. But Frost's main concern is for the safety of a missing schoolgirl.

The dead body of another little girl from the same school is found... Frost's prime suspect, strongly protesting his innocence, hangs himself in his cell, leaving a note blaming Frost for driving him to suicide. Coarse, insubordinate and fearless, DI Jack Frost is in serious trouble.

Riveting story, loved it.

Great story, highly recommend. So many twists and turns, and surprising ending. I was gripped from start to finish.

A Frosty Winner

What made the experience of listening to Winter Frost the most enjoyable?

This was a most enjoyable listen. There are numerous storylines as ever in a Frost tale interwoven with humorous asides. Keeping track of the cast of characters can be tricky but there is also the anticipation of a minor character that may be more than they originally seem.

What other book might you compare Winter Frost to, and why?

It was a good companion to the rest of the Frost series. I was liken it to the Peter Robinson Banks series; must be all the cigarette smoking that is portrayed.

What does Stephen Thorne bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you had only read the book?

Stephen Thorne produced a masterly performance for this narration and seem to capture the chaotic essence of the Frost character. He manages to portray both male and female voices very well.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

The final scenes in the hunt for the missing woman were very nail biting; though I did not really understand the motive behind the crime on this occasion which I found slightly annoying. Maybe a little rushed.

Any additional comments?

This is DI Jack Frost Book 5 so I uggest starting with the first Frost book : Frost At Christmas:

Winter frost!

Love the.books, wish that they hadn’t toned the story down for tv like they did because so much of the characters were lost. Please give this series a chance it’s so much better than the tv version!
