For years, PC David Watson was a policeman of the old school. He patrolled the towns and cities of England's north by car and on foot, where a fight against crime lurked around every corner. Until, one day, disaster struck - albeit from an unexpected direction.
A near fatal encounter in the Scottish Highlands left the Yorkshire bobby inches away from death and with just about every bone in his body shattered. Indeed, had it not been for a miracle intervention, his story would have already been over. As it was, and initially from his hospital bed, he embarked on a physical and psychological battle for survival. He rebuilt a life that had once been so active, step by painful step.
Out of the Blue is the inspiritational story of that fightback and more. It gives an inside take on British policing at the sharp end - the dangers, the frustrations, the thrills and the dark humour. And it shows how overwhelming odds can be beaten by hope, courage, determination, medical skill and family support.
