A recently reinstated Frost re-teams with D.S. Lawson to investigate a corpse floating in the canal and a mutilated body in a discarded refrigerator.

Reinstated and again working with Sergeant Lawson, Frost has two corpses on his hands. One is that of a man found floating in the river with cash and a list of numbers in his pocket. The other leads him into the competitive world of ballroom dancing and Miss Dolores Delmonte, whose search for perfection in her partners goes to alarming lengths.—don @ minifie-1

After a suspension lasting over 7 months, DI Jack Frost is reinstated to duty. He finds little has changed at the Denton Station with Supt. Mullett's latest anti-crime campaign consisting of giving drinkers lollipops as they leave the pubs at closing time. On a more serious note, Jack and DS Lawson investigate the death of a man found on the banks of the Denton river. He'd been in the water for at least day but Dr. Chase finds that he had been stabbed twice in the heart with a small knife. He is eventually identified as Eddie Burrows, a one-time pharmaceutical salesman whom the police are now convinced was up to no good. They find he was leading a double life which provides a number of potential suspects. Meanwhile, the police are soon investigating another murder when the dismembered corpse of Leonard Morrison is found. He was a con man who specialized in swindling the ladies. He was a ballroom dancer and after a year together, had recently ended his partnership with Dolores Delmonte. She is none too pleased and takes up with a local butcher who adores her and would do anything she asks. Jack has to work through it all with a broken tooth, courtesy of one of Supt. Mullett's lollipops.—garykmcd
