Story
When art dealer Ivan Fielding is found dead of a heart attack in his home, it doesn’t initially seem like a case for Detective Inspector Frost and the Denton police force. But then signs of a burglary are discovered, and Frost senses there’s more to the story than meets the eye - even though the only thing taken was a worthless amateur painting.

Story
Jack Frost is disheveled, disorganised and disrespectful. His superiors don't like him. He has a habit of doing things his way - and getting results. But when Denton CID is faced with a spate of major crimes, Frost finds himself under pressure. A young woman becomes the sixth victim of a multiple rapist, a teenage girl goes missing, there's a robbery at the Purple Parrot nightclub, and an old man is injured in a hit-and-run. With all this on his plate, Frost has little time and less patience for paperwork.

Story
Sharply observant and wickedly funny, E.F. Benson's six Mapp and Lucia novels satirize the upper-middle-class social climbers in 1920s and '30s rural England. Games of bridge and cups of tea fuel hilarious gossip and vindictive plots a-plenty. It is a masterfully sustained spotlight on the minutiae of village life - a clever and ultimately heart-warming series that seems tailor-made for audio. Volume 1 contains the first three books.

Clearly no accidental fire, Detective Inspector Tony McLean suspects that neither is this simply a grim arson attack. There is far more to the victim than her humble surroundings might suggest, and something ritualistic to her horrific murder. Nor will it be the only case of death by fire that Tony and his team will be faced with. This is only the beginning, and with such evil clouding the air, Tony begins to wonder what else will burn....

Good, follows on nicely from the other 4 prequels
Although written by a different author (James Henry) from the 4 prequel Frost novels this follows on nicely and retains the usual characters etc.
My only criticism is Frost is not as funny or indeed as slapdash as in the previous books and has infinately more serious persona.
Mullett on the other hand, although not as irritating he is also not as slimey and self promoting, which we've come to expect from him.
A good story, kept my attention which is paramount for an audio book.
Ready for the next one now, but sadly seems to be the last.
Not a bad narration from Crawford Logan.

A poor attempt at writing Frost
I complained about the preceding Frost book and said it was the worst of the series so far. It didn't retain that title for long. Not only was this boring, it didn't even feel like a Frost book. The Frost formula is simple: Frost is a slovenly and disorganised but well-intentioned old school copper who gets buried in a heap of cases and whose methods ultimately get him in trouble. There are several crimes in this, but all neatly tie together in a distinctly non Frost way. There's no sense of tension, with too much time spent on almost soap opera scenes of characters and the author's love of showing off his vocabulary slows it down even more. None of the characters are well served, but Mullett comes off by far the worst. He's so out of character it may as well have been somebody else entirely. The whole thing feels like the author took the first draft of a different book and made some small changes (mainly the names.) Finally, it's not funny. Frost books usually manage to find the humour in very dark scenarios, but this goes out of its way to include bizarre scenarios but the humour still falls flat
