"It's original, it's funny . . . one of life's little pleasures." Yorkshire Post

Sergeant Blaketon is a force to be reckoned with - Ashfordly Police's most redoubtable old stalwart. He's ruled the roost longer than anyone cares to remember.

Now comes the bombshell that he's ready to retire.

Constable Nick can't imagine village life without him. But he must find a way to carry on.

What's to be done about the lairy goat terrorizing motorists? Or the tiny human skeleton discovered in a derelict cottage? Not to mention Greengrass's latest roguish enterprise - a school of motoring.

With Blaketon gone, Constable Nick has some big shoes to fill . . .

Can he step up to the plate?
