This is not a 'novel of the TV series' - it's a small part of the memoirs in the rich life of Peter 'Nicholas Rhea' Walker, who was a 'bobbie' in a Yorkshire village in the 1960s and whose stories inspired the television series Heartbeat. This omnibus volume contains Constable On The Hill; Constable Around The Village and Constable Across The Moors. Here's all our favourite characters: Claude Jeremiah Greengrass, Sergeant Blaketon, P.C. 'Vesuvius' Ventress and more: Greengrass' dog Alfred's unfortunate incident with the budgerigar; young P.C. Nick's first very merry New Year in Aidensfield; the funeral of the ancient tramp, Irresponsible John and other touching, humorous and affectionately-remembered tales of the Yorkshire countryside.
