The Real Happy Valley was shortlisted for the True Crime Awards Book of the Year 2024.

Police Sergeant Catherine Cawood may be a fictional character, but her bravery, compassion and determination exist in real-life policewomen serving across Yorkshire today.

In The Real Happy Valley, former policewoman Alice Vinten reveals what life on the beat is really like for those protecting the cobbled streets and windswept hills of this historic county. From domestic abuse to kidnap, gang crime and murder, these women will stop at nothing to bring their criminals to justice and in the most extraordinary circumstances, they never fail to put others’ safety before their own.

Gripping, inspiring and eye-opening, The Real Happy Valley is a celebration of our finest officers’ peerless commitment to protect and serve.

The Real Happy Valley is also out now in paperback. Grab your copy here or, better, via your local bookshop or Bookshop.org.
