Constable Nick knows too well, sometimes it's the locals that can be the most troublesome, particularly when old divisions between villages, old gangs and even religion still exist. A look at the eccentric locals who make up the village of Aidensfield.

Set midway through the series of "Constable" books which became the basis for the TV series "Heartbeat" set in 1960s Yorkshire, documenting the life of a local policeman - not all cops and robbers. ( )

Book received from NetGalley.

Only the second book in the series that has a murder in it, well that I have read anyway. I am hooked on these books, and I'm thrilled that they are free through Kindle Unlimited at the moment so I can pick up the ones I didn't receive through NetGalley. These are British police procedurals that take place in a small village in Yorkshire in the 1960's. You can tell that the author used some of his own experiences when writing the novels because they don't always read like fiction. I cannot wait to read more of this series. ( )
