About this listen

Orphaned at 18, a naïve and solitary Chris Pritchard joins the Metropolitan Police in search of a family, friends and a regular income. He is posted to Stoke Newington police station in London’s tough East End. Despite barely concealed contempt for her hapless new charge, his experienced instructor, WPC Dawn Matthews, puppy walks him through a journey, which is regularly amusing, frequently sad and occasionally bizarre. You will not listen to a more accurate account of how London was policed a generation ago.

Soooo good!

Please, audible - you HAVE to get the other six in the series, and the sooner the better!! (I’ll even forgive the brilliant narrator his hilarious mispronunciation of “indictable”…)

Great story

I hung on every word in this book. It was one of those books that you want to get back to. I enjoyed the relationships, especially since the story is based on real people of the time. It contains the full range of emotions and was exceptionally well read.

A gem.

Beautifully crafted around intriguing situations around a young police probationer in the 80s with a quick script. The narrator has a great pace and can do multiple voices and many accents. Just wish books 2 and 3 in the series were available.

Really enjoyed it can’t wait for the others on Audible in the series - all the mistakes lots of Probationary Constables made - what a laugh

Fantastic!

Absolutely loved this book. I felt like I was there with them. Some hearty belly laughs and sad moments also. Shame the rest of series is not on audible as the narrator was great. I’ll be carrying on with kindle though!
