The bestselling author of Girl Waits With Gun returns with another adventure featuring the feisty, unforgettable Kopp sisters.
In 1915, lady cops were not expected to chase down fugitives on the streets of New York City. But Constance Kopp never did what anyone expected.
After besting (and arresting) a ruthless silk factory owner and his gang of thugs, Constance Kopp has earned her place as the nation's first female deputy sheriff. She's proven that she can't be deterred, evaded, or outrun. But when a con man escapes from jail on her watch, she must find him before he disappears completely, and she ends up right back where she started - unemployed.
The sequel to "Girl Waits With Gun", this is another adventure featuring the unforgettable Kopp sisters. Set in New York and New Jersey in the early 20th century, as Constance Kopp carries out her duties as one of the nation's first deputy sheriffs, cheered on and goaded by her sisters Norma and Fleurette.
'In this comic mystery set in 1915 and based on actual events, Constance Kopp, the first female deputy sheriff in Bergen County, N.J., is still packing a pistol and an attitude after her first crime-fighting adventures in Girl Waits with Gun. Stewart's second volume in her Kopp Sisters Series is a clever, suspenseful, and funny tale of a formidable woman facing crime, politics, social stigma, all while nailing evildoers ? Fans of the first Kopp Sisters novel will find another treat in this follow-up.'
