Synopsis:

DISCOVER YOUR NEXT FAVOURITE SERIES. MEET BRITAIN’S BEST-LOVED VILLAGE POLICEMAN.

Perfect for fans of James Herriot, T.E. Kinsey, Gerald Durrell, J.R. Ellis or anyone who loves a great read.

“It’s original, it’s funny . . . one of life’s little pleasures.” Yorkshire Post

Constable Nick opens his pocketbook to bring us more madcap tales from Aidensfield. This is village life — but not as he knows it.

Scheming Greengrass has changed his ways, for one. Nowadays he’s the host of a plush new bed and breakfast, while gruff old Sergeant Blaketon is the darling of the local press.

Has the entire village gone mad?

Constable Nick can’t help but wonder. Especially when his own caseload comprises:

A pet in peril.
A small boy obsessed with finding mythical birds in the Dales.
An elderly lady gone wandering on the moors.

The brilliantly entertaining and heartwarming books behind the hit 90s TV series Heartbeat. One of the top ten most watched shows of the decade.

“Stories of a constable on his village beat in North Yorkshire. All very gentle and far, far removed from the hurly burly of modern-day city policing.” Daily Telegraph

About the Author: Author Nicholas Rhea (the pseudonym of Peter Walker) drew on his own experiences as a local bobby for a small Yorkshire village in the 1960s to chronicle the career of Constable Nick, from his first arrival in Aidensfield in Constable on the Hill through his years on his rural beat, to his retirement in Constable over the Hill. In 2007, he was given the Crime Writers' Association's John Creasey Award (named after the CWA founder) for services to the association. By his death in 2017, he had written over 110 books, using as many as five pseudonyms, and had become one of the north's most prolific writers.
