Minster Policeman's book is a sell out

Long-serving York Minster Policeman John Key published a book about life behind the scenes of the Minster’s own Police Force in 2006.  John’s book, Close Encounters: Reminiscences of a York Minster Policeman is now a sell-out!  John has donated all proceeds from the sale of the book, which reached a total of £842.07 to Martin House, Yorkshire’s Hospice for children and young people.

John Key, Minster Policeman and author of Close Encounters said, “I am so pleased that all copies have been sold and am delighted that I am able to donate such a healthy sum to Martin House.  I would like to thank all those who bought and read the book and who have helped to support the hospice.”
