Lady Cop Makes Trouble by Amy StewartMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Love this series. Constance Kopp was a real person and much of the story has as its " bones" the articles written about her in the New Jersey papers of the early 20th Century. She and her two sisters live in the rural part of Rutherford but she is the sheriff's deputy--on and off. Mostly, lately she has been the woman's jail matron but, when one of the male inmates refuses to speak anything but German and only to her, she finds herself escorting him to the nearest hospital where he makes his escape.
How she tries to recapture him to save her boss' job and get reinstated is a truly fun Kopp Kaper. The secondary characters--her down to earth passenger pigeon breeder sister, Norma and her much younger " sister " and determined to see the lights of the city, Fleurette--only enhance the tale, as does her by the book but supportive boss and his unhappy wife. Looking forward to episode three.
