Yorkshire, 1980’s.
Nick Rhea is a new recruit to Aidensfield police station.
Drawing the short straw as a newbie to the force, he is regularly covering the night duty patrol.
Despite this being the least popular shift amongst his peers, it is certainly proving to be the most enlightening patrol...
Set in an idyllic village you would assume that crime would be minimal.
You were wrong.
Entertaining characters keep the village alive. Especially the roguish Claude Jeremiah Greengrass with his ingenious ability to avoid the law.
Poachers, thefts and bizarre midnight escapades are rampant. Nick must prove his worth amongst his peers by thwarting these crimes.
Whilst also contending with the practical jokes carried out by his colleagues.
Can Nick withstand the small village life and gain the respect of the people he serves?
Or will he yearn for work in the big cities of the country?
Constable on the Prowl is an enlightening collection of memoirs that will remain with you for years.
