OUT ON THE NORTH YORKSHIRE MOORS, CHAOS REIGNS.

And it’s all thanks to the wayward yeomen of Aidensfield. Namely:

Farmer Reuben, a capering lush.

Farmer Tim, who dreams of opening his own nudist colony.

Farmer Seamus, whose cows run amok through the village.

This motley gang of eccentrics ought to have their minds on the business of running a farm, working the land. Instead their heads are stuck in the clouds.

Together, their outrageous antics are more than enough to keep hardworking Constable Nick on his toes. Even when there are genuine criminals to be tracked, including the current bane of his existence: the phantom milk bottle thief.

Can he somehow keep the peace — along with his sanity?

The brilliantly entertaining and heartwarming books behind the hit 90s TV series Heartbeat. One of the top ten most watched shows of the decade.
