DISCOVER YOUR NEXT FAVOURITE SERIES. MEET BRITAIN'S BEST-LOVED VILLAGE POLICEMAN. "It's original, it's funny . . . one of life's little pleasures." Yorkshire Post THE BOOKS WHICH INSPIRED HEARTBEAT PLEASE NOTE THIS BOOK IS A TIE-IN WITH THE TV SERIES AND NICK'S CHARACTER REFLECTS THE DETAILS IN HEARTBEAT, RATHER THAN THE REST OF THE BOOKS. BOY RACERS ARE DRIVING EVERYONE MAD AND WHO'S ROBBING ISOLATED CHURCHES? One particular point of annoyance for the locals is the youths racing along country lanes in their cars. Constable Nick receives nightly calls from one particular villager who is very distressed by the reckless teens. His current puzzle, however, is a spate of thefts from remote moorland churches. Thefts that may not be unconnected with Claude Jeremiah Greengrass' latest enterprise, a free grass-cutting service to local churches . . . Meanwhile, Sergeant Blaketon is occupied with the tricky task of policing a football match in Whitby. Little does Blaketon know that the match will provide local teenagers, including Blaketon's son, the chance to stage a killer race around Aidensfield. 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 In the beautiful North Yorkshire countryside of the 1960s, Constable Nick's roles are as varied as the eccentric villagers. Perfect for fans of James Herriot, T.E. Kinsey, Gerald Durrell, J.R. Ellis or anyone who loves a great read. DISCOVER ONE OF BRITAIN'S BEST-LOVED AUTHORS MEET CONSTABLE NICK AND HIS COLLEAGUES Police Constable Nick Rhea has been posted to the country with his wife Mary and their three small children. They move into the police house, high on a ridge overlooking the moors. It sits on the edge of the village of Aidensfield - "probably the most beautiful site in the country". Sergeant Oscar Blaketon. A solid and dependable character who runs his tiny station with fierce efficiency. Under his tough exterior, he is full of warmth, generosity and kindness. PC Alf Ventress. The old, easy-going constable whose local knowledge is vital to the running of Ashfordly Police Station. He does like Mrs Ventress's hard-boiled eggs! WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT NICHOLAS RHEA "Just love Nicholas Rhea's Constable books . . . easy reading delivers a heartwarming, amusing trip back to a very different kind of policing in the 60s." Joy Ellis "A fascinating insight into the life of a rural constable . . . the book makes splendid reading." Police Journal "Rhea's real strengths are his sharp portraits of people and absorbing detail of a country copper practising his craft." Northern Echo "To be blunt, this is not my normal reading fare, but I loved it." Nancy "I enjoyed this tremendously." Melissa "A wonderful and relaxing dip into the beautiful North Yorkshire moors." David "A highly entertaining book which anyone who is looking for easy and humorous reading will enjoy." Granny
