A brand new series about an insurance man in the Yorkshire Dales from the author of the Constable / Heartbeat books. Matthew Taylor was an apprentice butcher in the village shop at the outbreak of war. Not much call for that in the Army, who re-trained him as a qualified motor mechanic. But neither profession appealed as much as the chance to be the local insurance man with the task of persuading hard-hearted Yorkshire folk to part with their money for "summat thoo can't see." In the late forties and early fifties in the north of England his work was varied and always fascinating as he encountered some wonderful characters on his rounds. These stories take us back to a time before cars and telephones were owned by every household; a trusting time when people would leave their payment in sheds or on window ledges, and a time when, if people were short of cash, Matthew found himself accepting goods in place of premiums a sort of bartering system.
