Detective Inspector Jack Frost knelt down beside the tiny body. "Who did this to you, sonny?" he asked, his face tight with compassion. "What dirty bastard did this?" The boy was eight years old, bound and gagged, and stripped naked. He had been dead for some seven or eight hours.
Coarse and insubordinate, fearless and intuitive, DI Jack Frost, brought to vivid life on television by David Jason, stumbles from crisis to crisis as he tries to cope with a child stabbing pervert, the discovery of a decomposing body in a coal bunker, a suspicious suicide, an equally suspicious burglary and the abduction of a teen-aged girl.
