"It's original, it's funny . . . one of life's little pleasures." Yorkshire Post Dark days and ferocious weather. Cut-off villages and stranded animals can only mean one thing. Winter is coming to the North Yorkshire moors. And the bobbies of Aidensfield had better be ready. The blizzard outside may be endless. But it's nothing compared to Constable Nick's caseload.

"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."

Autor

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.
