Constance Kopp, America's first female deputy sheriff, is back in another unforgettable romp by HWA-longlisted international bestseller Amy Stewart.

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

With wit and verve, Amy Stewart brilliantly conjures the life and times of the real Constance Kopp and her feisty sisters.

Media Reviews

`Suspenseful ... boasts a deeper emphasis on character, politics, and social issues. A must for Constance's growing fan base.'

* Booklist, starred review *

`Stewart's intrepid deputy sheriff is back, this time enmeshed in a 1916 local election with uncomfortable contemporary resonance ... Constance may just have turned 40, but this tough-minded, generous-hearted believer in second chances and equal rights for women looks set for many more adventures. A welcome addition to this sui generis series, always fresh thanks to its vividly imagined characters firmly grounded in historical fact.'

* Kirkus, starred review *

`Stewart skillfully builds nail-biting suspense ... The blend of practicality, forthrightness, and compassion in her first-person narration is sure to satisfy series fans and win new admirers.'
