Summary : DISCOVER YOUR NEXT FAVOURITE SERIES. MEET BRITAIN'S BEST-LOVED VILLAGE POLICEMAN. Perfect for fans of James Herriot, T.E. Kinsey, Gerald Durrell, J.R. Ellis or anyone who loves a great read. "It's original, it's funny . . . one of life's little pleasures." Yorkshire Post Summer is coming to the North Yorkshire moors. And it's time for the folk of Aidensfield to partake in an ancient tradition known as "beating the bounds". On this day, Constable Nick leads a motley procession of villagers round the parish boundaries, beating the ground with sticks as they go. But some boundaries are made to be broken. Especially in the line of duty. Constable Nick may be happy to bend the rules on occasion, when faced with a tardy bride, a missing cat or a pair of warring neighbours. But a human skull -- found on the lonely moors above the village -- is another matter, and in this case, Nick must play exactly by the book. Can Constable Nick piece together the mystery of the stranger's death? The brilliantly entertaining and heartwarming books behind the hit 90s TV series Heartbeat.

Summary : Even the quietest place needs careful policing... As part of his training, young Constable Nick is appointed as Aide to CID, better known as the 'Constable in Disguise.' Joining the criminal investigation department, he soon learns about the work of the men and women in plain clothes and discovers more than he bargained for when he finds himself staking out a house under suspicion of being used as a brothel... Constable Nick realises that even in the quest, there is much that goes on beneath the surface. Meanwhile, his sergeant has an unusual method of getting two burglary suspects to confess: by challenging them to a snooker match. Constable Nick soon finds himself embroiled in a series of unusual and interesting investigations in his new-found position and can't help wondering whether it was his Sherlockian skills that played their part... Packed with stories that reveal the joys and sorrows of country folk, Constable in Disguise creates a colourful picture of detective work in rural North Yorkshire. Praise for The Constable Series '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 'A fascinating insight into the life of a rural constable ... the book makes splendid reading,' - Police Journal 'The colourful as much as the criminal side of life is his professional lot, and in a whole series of attractively written anecdotes he reveals how the waywardness which leads both young and old into awkward individualism, as well as into evil, keeps him busy.' - Countryman 'Rhea's real strengths are his sharp portraits of people, and absorbing detail of a country copper practising his craft ... As with the Herriot series, the best humour comes from the author's close understanding and affectionate portrayals of the character of Yorkshire country folk. Life as a North Riding copper must have been rich indeed.' - Northern Echo 'An account of the hilarious happenings to the county's rural policemen over the years.' - Yorkshire Post 'Filled with Yorkshire characters to make you laugh and cry ... shows rural life through the eyes of a village bobby.' - Whitby Gazette 'An excellent, well-written, humorous journey through the life of a village bobby.' - Police Box Nicholas Rhea , now retired, spent 30 years in the force, having started as a Police Cadet for the North Riding Constabulary. His best-known work, the Constable Series , provided the inspiration for the hugely popular TV series, Heartbeat and he remained involved with the series as a consultant until filming ended in 2009.

Genre : Biography & Autobiography

Summary : When John Constable fell in love with Maria Bicknell, granddaughter of a Suffolk country neighbour, he little knew how long it would take to make her his wife. The impediment to their marriage was simple: 'that necessary article cash'. He was a painter without sufficient funds to support the daughter of a prominent London lawyer, and both he and her grandfather, the formidable (and sometimes comical) Rector of East Bergholt, disapproved of the match. It would be seven long, difficult years before they could marry, but in that time he would become one of the greatest painters of the nineteenth century. Martin Gayford writes superbly about Constable's early years as a painter and Maria and John's correspondence provides the lively backdrop to the story; one of lovers' tiffs, London versus country life, encounters with Turner, Byron and Wordsworth, royal scandals and rivalries at the Royal Academy. All the time, John Constable battles to become a painter who can earn his living and win Maria's hand.
