Miss Kopp’s Midnight Confessions (Kopp Sisters) (Amy Stewart) is set up as one continuous listen: cover, runtime, and a chapter list on the same page.
The widely enjoyed author of Girl Waits with Gun and Lady Cop Makes Trouble continues her notable journey into the real lives of the forgotten but fabulous Kopp sisters. Deputy sheriff Constance Kopp is outraged to see young women brought into the Hackensack jail over dubious charges of waywardness, incorrigibility, and moral depravity. The strong-willed, patriotic Edna Heustis, who left home to work in a munitions factory, certainly doesn’t belong behind bars. And 16-year-old runaway Minnie Davis, with few prospects and fewer friends, shouldn’t be publicly shamed and packed off to a state-run reformatory. But such were the laws – and morals – of 1916. Constance uses her authority as deputy sheriff, and occasionally exceeds it, to investigate and defend these women when no one else will. But it’s her sister Fleurette who puts Constance’s beliefs to the test and forces her to reckon with her own ideas of how a young woman should and shouldn’t behave. Against the backdrop of World War I, and drawn once again from the true story of the Kopp sisters, Miss Kopp’s Midnight Confessions is a spirited story that will delight fans of historical fiction and lighthearted detective fiction alike. ©2017 The Stewart-Brown Trust (P)2017 Recorded Books
