  • ""You are about to meet one of law enforcement's great eccentrics, the irrepressible Detective-Inspector Jack Frost of the Denton police. Inspector Frost has a gambler's luck--and a gambler's nerve! He needs both, because Frost also attracts trouble like a magnet. As soon as he takes charge of the search for a missing child, a rash of new crimes breaks out in Denton. First an ancient skeleton is unearthed where it shouldn't be. Then the fresh corpse of a bank employee turns up, and the puzzle of a long-forgotten robbery comes back to haunt respectable citizens. As the game grows deadlier, a wiser man might think about dropping out. But Frost stakes his livelihood--and then his life--in his craziest gamble ever."--BOOK COVER."@en

As Frost looks for the girl with the help of a dubious psychic, he finds a long-buried corpse. Then, to make Christmas even bluer, an old unsolved case is reopened."@en
