I enjoyed this as much as I have the others I have read.The Moors of England and the people depicted in these books are fascinating to me. I hope to read all of the books in this series. Great fun.
Any of the books about PC Nick Rhea's is guaranteed to make you smile about the life of a country copper. A gentle stroll through village life with occasional highlights these books are well written and never boring. I think of them as serial autobiography.
I liked this set of books because they are written well. The writer obviously knows the area well. Stories about life in rural communities that make you smile.
