Product Description

Synopsis

In the fifth book of the "Constable" series, Nicholas Rhea continues his highly popular police stories - this time with a seaside flavour. As a seasonal break from his usual village beat on the North Yorks Moors, young Police Constable Rhea finds himself involved with holiday-makers and their problems. As well as the normal seaside duties how does he cope with a man who has lost his false teeth in the sea and another who wants to give away thousands of pounds when drunk? Then there's the stray Labrador that thinks he's a police dog and accompanies police officers on night patrols, and the anxious fisherman who daren't tell his wife that he owns a racehorse. These and a galaxy of other delightful characters are encountered by our rural bobby as he goes about his business in this new environment. You'll chuckle with him as he pursues his hilarious work among the great British public. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars I really enjoyed this book 5 Dec 2008
By Andy Capp
Format:Paperback
I really enjoyed this book and as I read I felt I was there by the sea. Constable Nick had to really rush to the police station after getting off the train because of the stampede by the schoolchildren.

Oscar Blaketon was there and was not standing any nonesense from anyone. A new character to me was PC Joe Tapley and I thought he was very good.

Nick and his colleague had trouble when the man had difficulties in the sea but the determination of the two officers won through in the end.

Well done to Nicholas Rhea for a great book as always and congratulations also to Accent Press for a great cover.

If you haven't read the book I recommend you do so you will be in for a treat.

Expecting visitors from Canada who are Heartbeat mad so I bought 20+ of the Constable books on Amazon. All were as described and all arrived in good time so no issues.

5.0 out of 5 stars Constable Rhea takes on the holiday makers and the Sea air. 3 Feb 2013
By ANNETTE G GUNTHER - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
Nicholas Rhea writes in an easy to read style and seems to pinpoint the human condition perfectly. YUet again he weaves stories both credible and amusing. As usual he leaves the reader wanting just one more tale.
