From the back cover:10 days to Xmas, & Jack Frost is in no mood to celebrate. Once frost takes reluctant charge of a district-wide search for a missing child, his commanding officer orders him to interview a local crank who fancies herself a psychic. To make matters worse, he's been assigned a new sidekick, the Chief Constable's nephew, Clive Barnard-one name Forst wouldn't mind seeing on a missing person's report..............
Our main character, Jack Frost is a mess of a person. But despite this, I was still rooting for him, even when he makes one huge procedural blunder-you still root for him. Very wells written, I'm looking forward to the rest of the Jack Frost series.
