IT'S NOT THE BIG CITY BUT THE YORKSHIRE COUNTRYSIDE IS STILL FULL OF INCIDENT He soon gets to know all the characters on his beat, from his superior officer Sergeant Blaketon to Claude Jeremiah Greengrass, whose lurcher Alfred lands him with a summons for "allowing a dog to worry livestock on agricultural land."

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT NICHOLAS RHEA "Recommended if it's laughter you're after." Bolton Evening News "Richly entertaining." Yorkshire Evening Post "Splendid reading." Police Journal "A wonderful and relaxing dip into the beautiful North Yorkshire Moors." David "A highly entertaining book which anyone who is looking for easy and humorous reading will enjoy." Granny IN THE AUTHOR'S OWN WORDS "The concept of the Constable books arose because I wanted to write a book which showed that the police undertook much work which was not associated with crime or detective investigations. As I had served as a village constable in a delightful part of the North York Moors, it seemed logical to use that experience as a background to the stories, and to add a touch of humour which is always present in police work.".…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Nicht gesprochene Worte des Herzens sind vergebene Chancen der Liebe, verlorene Momente des Glucks, verpasste Begegnungen und stumm gebliebene Augenblicke der Wahrheit. Die Poeten dieses Bandes machen sich daran, diesen Worten eine Heimat zu geben und dem Schweigen eine Stimme zu verleihen, sie lassen die Stille tonen - laut und leise, zart wie hart, melancholisch, klar und schimmernd wie ein Kristall. Poesie ist der lebendige Versuch, dem Augenblick einen Klang zu geben, der Wirklichkeit einen Ort und dem Moment eine Wahrheit, die diesen uberdauert.…
