Into the Valley by Chris Clement-Green
An often humorous, always candid and no-holds-barred reflection of the life of a policewoman in the 80s, this book offers a personal account of a life in uniform, while touching on the Newbury Bypass demos, the effects of Scarman, the Hungerford Massacre, the bombing of Libya, the AIDS epidemic and working under the notorious Ali Dizaei.
Chris Clement-Green recently retired from Thames Valley Police after sixteen years as a uniform sergeant followed by five as a civilian investigator on serious and organised crime teams - which included working on several murder incident rooms. Her last job involved the management of sixty registered sex-offenders. Since becoming a serious writer in 2007, Chris has had several articles and letters published both home and abroad, and was the winner of the Oriel Davis Prose Competition in 2016 and also a finalist in the Women in Comedy Festival 2016 writing competition with her monologue, Queenie. Chris has now moved to rural Wales and set up The Welsh Writing Shed, from where she runs tutored and untutored writing retreats (thewelshwritingshed.co.uk).
