Description

Miss Kopp Just Won't Quit by Amy Stewart features Constance Kopp, America's first female deputy sheriff, returning in another unforgettable romp by Historical Writers' Association-longlisted international bestseller Amy Stewart.

While transporting a woman to an insane asylum, Deputy Kopp discovers something deeply troubling about her story. Before she can investigate, another inmate breaks free and tries to escape.

In both cases, Constance runs instinctively toward justice. But 1916 is a high-stakes US election year, and any move she makes could jeopardize Sheriff Heath's future - and her own. Constance's controversial career makes her the target of political attacks.

With wit and verve, book club favourite Amy Stewart brilliantly conjures the life and times of the real Constance Kopp to give us this 'unforgettable, not-to-be messed-with heroine' (Marie Claire).
