Brilliant January 5, 2009
M. V. Clarke (Durham, UK)
How sad that this is the final Frost novel ever, following RD Wingfield's death in 2007. It's as funny, punchy, fast-moving and invigorating as the earlier novels, and longer too - it doesn't suffer for this at all, in fact, the length simply heightens the enjoyment. Frost is as rude, funny, irreverent and brilliant as ever; forced to deal with several violent, disturbing cases, as well as an attempt by Mullett and the newly-arrived and instantly despised DCI Skinner, to get rid of him, he's stretched to the limit and wastes little time in telling everyone concerned exactly what he's thinking. The plot is superb - complex but well handled, the characters come alive off the page and there are many lines that made me laugh out loud. All round, a brilliant buy - if, like me, you were disappointed by the 2008 ITV Frost series, don't be put off this book - like all the others, it's far better than any of the TV shows.

Over the past month I have spent more on books than I can count, all of them have been thrown down by chapter 4..if I managed to get that far. As far as crime goes,you will be hard pushed to get better than R D Wingfield. Just to think that this will be his last book,is a crime in it's self. Sadly he died in 2007, and to me the world has lost a true great. Not only does he keep you on the edge of your seat with all 6 books,but he has you laughing out loud too. David Jason does a real job of D I Frost,but the books are ten times better,and I think that goes for any book that has been made in to a film.
As I said,this is the last book and I will find it hard to get another author that I can pick of the shelf and know I will finish the book and still want for more. When Mr Wingfield died,the true British thriller died with him. A sad...sad loss.
Just one of his books are worth ten that you can find in any book store. So he wrote six books,and if you ask me what book to buy?. Well all of them. They will grace the book shelf in any home.
I'd forgotten just how good the Frost books are. November 17, 2008

It is a long time since I read my last Frost novel and I'd forgotten just how good these books are. With great characters and inter-twining plots, this book is the nearest I've come to un-put-downable in a long time and ranks alongside the very best crime fiction. This was a book that I was truly sad to finish.
A fantastic read August 11, 2008

Its sad that this will be the last Frost book but lovely to be able to say that Mr Wingfield went out on a high. This is the real Frost, not the somewhat sanitised TV version, rude, crude and full of piss and vinegar. Frost and his nemesis, Superintendent Mullett, battle it out to the end in a multilayered story that makes one laugh and cringe in equal amounts.
A first class mystery novel July 28, 2008
Katja Beck (Hollywood, FL, USA)

This book can easily set the standard for wonderful mystery novels. The story includes several different crimes, but I was never lost or confused. Inspector Frost is working on all cases and is being pressured by his superiors Mullet and Skinner to get results. The cases are grim and Frost is handling them brilliantly by bending the rules and disregarding his superior's instructions. The highlights of the book are the conversations between Frost and Mullet or Skinner. They are outright hilarious because Frost knows how to twist their words and speak in double meanings. This book has it all: excellent writing, a gripping plot and a healthy dose of humor. I recommend the entire series.
