Constable Over the Bridge - Tapa dura

Sinopsis

Under the watchful eye of Constable Nick, the villagers of Aidensfield continue their rustic lives deep in the North York Moors of the 1960s. Greengrass almost ruins Sergeant Craddock's accident-free statistics when a henhouse falls off his lorry while Nick copes with a couple of determined lady shoplifters, a witness who can't remember what she saw, a roadman whose daily sandwiches are stolen and a man with a penchant for searching dustbins to find old socks. An ancient Aidensfield custom is revived in a tug-of-war which spans the river with Greengrass as anchor man, then Constable Nick performs some very special duties, such as traffic control at the funeral of a donkey or searching for a couple of stone badgers who went for a midnight walk. Only a small portion of a village constable's work is associated with crime, however: there were the villagers who helped a lady who had lost an heirloom; the tragic couple for whom everything went spectacularly wrong; and a surprise Royal visitor who poses a problem of secrecy for Constable Nick. It's all in this latest collection of tales from Aidensfield.
