Description

SHORTLISTED FOR THE BOOK OF THE YEAR, TRUE CRIME AWARDS

A collection of real-life UK cases based on interviews with actual female police officers, anonymized for their protection, showing their bravery and dedication.


Alice Vinten, a former Met Police Constable with over 10 years of service on the force, shares the stories of brave and dedicated policewomen who have been involved in real-life cases in Yorkshire, based on a series of interviews with these women who have spent their entire careers at the sharp end of crime-fighting.

The Real Happy Valley reveals what life on the beat is really like. From dealing with domestic abuse cases to facing personal assaults, gang crime and murder, these courageous women stop at nothing to bring criminals to justice, never failing to put others' safety before their own.

Gripping and inspiring, The Real Happy Valley is a celebration of our finest policewomen's extraordinary courage, and their peerless commitment to protect and serve.



About the Author
Alice spent over eleven years in the Metropolitan Police Service as a constable. Her memoir about life on the beat, On The Line: Life - and Death - In the Metropolitan Police (Two Roads), received excellent reviews and led her to becoming a crime and police commentator for national media, as well as working with the BBC and other television production companies on various police dramas and documentaries. She lives with her children near the sea in Essex.

Reviews
Alice Vinten has published an important book on policing. She is a credit to the profession. I hope this signals a fresh approach to policing. * Dr Charlotte Proudman, Founder of Right To Equality *
